Payments Convergence
Software Earnings has developed Payments Convergence strategy to support a three-level approach to payments convergence. This strategic approach provides large financial institutions (LFI) with flexible options to integrate with their respective in-house strategies.
The three strategies also serve as a series of evolution steps, allowing LFIs to gradually phase in an overall payments convergence infrastructure.
Payments Convergence strategy includes:
1) Payments Common Services
This allows Payments Navigator to serve as a single infrastructure to current payment channel silos, taking advantage of centralized, common services.
2) Payments Aggregation
This strategy involves a centralized consolidator, which collects the balanced data streams from the various payment channel silos and distributes the transaction data to the various core applications: general ledger, posting, installment loans, A&R, CDA, etc.
3) Payments Hub
This solution will collect, perfect, and distribute payments from multiple channels. The payments hub is a SOA infrastructure that allows customers to compose work flows that use common services for any payment type.
