Frequently Asked Question

Is Open Banking only for the UK/EU?

It’s strongest in the UK/EU today, but similar regulated bank‑pay frameworks are expanding to additional regions; coverage is updated as new markets come online.

Can it handle subscriptions?

Yes—where bank mandates/variable recurring payments are supported, recurring debit can be automated with consent and clear audit trails.

How fast are funds available?

Confirmation is instant; settlement speed depends on the underlying rails (e.g., SEPA/UK), typically faster and more predictable than card settlement cycles.

Does this replace cards?

It complements cards. Many merchants present bank payments alongside cards/APMs, letting customers choose the best option per market.
