Viva Wallet CEO Haris Karonis said: “My team and I are pleased to announce our selection of ClearBank as our banking partner in the UK. As we accelerate as a business, we needed to ensure we had the right provider that could support our growth.
“As a likeminded business, we have found a long-term provider in ClearBank and I look forward to a close working relationship.”
ClearBank CEO Charles McManus said: “As cloud-based financial services providers that both fully leverage the power of Microsoft Azure, Viva Wallet and ClearBank have many synergies.
“We look forward to supporting Viva Wallet for the next phase of its growth and ultimately, enabling businesses to access better ways of making and receiving payments.”
As a cloud-based payment services provider, Viva Wallet allows businesses to accept e-commerce and offline payments.
It also enables the merchants to access transaction data and manage corporate expenses.
Currently, it employs around 400 people across 16 countries.
In March this year, Temenos partnered with ClearBank to provide banks with access to UK payment systems.
