Paytah welcomes its new Chief Operations Officer and General Manager, Giovanni Cunti.
The Paytah development team completed the integration tests with the payment system operated by the Bank of Lithuania. The integration makes possible to put in place a state-of-the-art gateway for instant payments within the EEA area.
Paytah is now equipped to offer the best possible service to its clients based on the newest payment technology. Paytah is now positioned among the very top payment service providers in Europe, using cutting edge fintech applications.
Paytah is the first payment institution to offer IBAN accounts running on blockchain. At the beginning of May, the new services will be available to individual and corporate customers. Stay tuned for more!
This is an important milestone in our quest on building a user-friendly and cost-effective banking service alternative for our clients. Letting go of old fashion ways and giving room for the implementation of cutting-edge technologies, taking banking experience to the next level.
Supporting the crypto revolution is part of our core value. We are proud to be one of the first crypto-friendly payment service providers and the first finance institution to launch a payment account app running on blockchain
Account transactions can now be processed in-house which drastically reduces processing time. Extra layer of security for payment transfers once third parties are eliminated from the workflow and replaced by our proprietary, blockchain based technologies.
Issuing International Bank Account Numbers in-house facilitates the process of opening a business or an individual account. And radically reduces the bureaucracy involved in the process of onboarding new customers. Clients can expect a faster and more dynamic service from now on.
In the coming months, our team will be focused on further developing banking applications and credit card processing functionalities. We are also upgrading the Anti Money Laundering and KYC procedures, implementing additional automation tools.
Paytah Payment Solutions announced the release of its new digital platform: The Paytah Wallet – a multicurrency account App running on the blockchain.
The new digital platform was developed in partnership with Heat Ledger. It uses 3rd generation distributed ledger technology to enhance traditional money services and to add special features related to security, privacy and transparency.
Transactions are faster, cheaper and safer. The Paytah Wallet is linked to a fully functional IBAN and incorporates all the main financial services of a payment account. Services include: Instant transfers within Paytah accounts; Euro transfer to external accounts via SEPA and SWIFT; Euro deposit through SEPA, International wire and Credit card; Private encrypted messaging between client/Paytah or client/client and Additional FIAT currencies (26 different currencies available)
The use of blockchain technology provides a full, unmodifiable audit trail to comply with regulatory requirements. Additionally, client-side encryption of transactions adds an extra layer of security to the system. Blockchain and the Private Key system put the client in control of its assets. Account balances cannot be adjusted, or transactions authorized without the user’s registered device explicitly providing access credentials for every transaction.
Marco Lavanna, Founder says:
“Having an account running on the blockchain eliminates the need of the so-called Trust Factor, and here lies the significance of resorting blockchain technology to improve traditional financial services.
Our App replaces the confirmation payment pass codes usually sent via SMSs and traditional token devices with unique Private Keys. The Private Key puts the account owner in control of their funds, no third party other than the Private Key holder can validate transactions. When authenticating a transaction, the private key triggers an automatic process that cannot be tampered nor interrupted.
The blockchain technology brings to our relationship with the clients a level of transparency otherwise impossible. In the financial world we know, financial transactions are 100% depended on the good intentions of a third party. When moving funds, the person would put its trust on a bank to rightfully make the transfer to the designated beneficiary. No trust is required when you have an account running on the blockchain.”
Add-ins are already under development and account owners will soon be able to hold, send and receive funds as well in cryptocurrencies.
The service is now available to individual and corporate customers. The user interface comprehends a mobile and a desktop version. And it was meticulously developed to be hassle-free and easy to handle.
