There are many innovative payments fintech providers that can offer more capabilities than a core processor – which means banks could be missing out on available features and benefits that could give them an edge with their cardholders. By partnering with providers who can offer a full suite of robust features – not just core processing services – the cardholder experience could improve significantly, driving further retention of your customers seeking these capabilities with their payments experience. This will also help to ensure you’re getting the most value for your investment.
