Fiserv Joins Swift Partner Programme

Global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions, Fiserv, Inc., has joined the Swift Partner Programme as a Platform Partner, building upon its longstanding relationship with Swift.

Enhanced Connectivity and Support

As a partner, Fiserv will offer connectivity to Swift APIs and enhance support for Swift GPI (Global Payments Initiative) for its client financial institutions. This Swift API connectivity will enhance end-to-end transparency for cross-border payments in real time, and provide full visibility on the status of those payments for Fiserv client banks.

The collaboration combines the unparalleled reach and security of Swift with Fiserv’s unmatched footprint as the largest global provider of technology to financial institutions. These connections offer an opportunity for more financial institutions to gain access to modern cross-border payment capabilities.

Swift Partner Programme Attracts Interest

The Swift Partner Programme membership has prompted significant interest among Fiserv clients, with multiple financial institutions already committed to leveraging the enhanced speed and transparency of cross-border payments provided by Swift API connectivity.

Rossana Thomas, Vice President and Head of Enterprise Payments Platform at Fiserv in EMEA, highlighted the company’s commitment to the strategic vision of leveraging APIs to facilitate access to Swift services. She emphasized that this is another step towards facilitating payment modernization on behalf of their clients and the wider Swift community in Europe and across the globe.
