CASE STUDY | PAYMENT: REAL-TIME TRANSACTIONS DRIVE PAYMENTS SECTOR Global trends, changing business models and innovations pose new challenges for the world of payment transactions. New payment providers simplify payment processes and seemingly threat the existing ecosystem of banks and financial service providers. Seemingly – because banks also keep up with the times. Within the framework of a comprehensive roll-out for the Czech bank Česká spořitelna, valantic has implemented a technology with which the subsidiary of the Erste Group Bank AG in Vienna can now offer its clients the possibility to make payments in real time.
CASE STUDY | PAYMENT: REAL-TIME TRANSACTIONS DRIVE PAYMENTS SECTOR Overview Instant payment has long become a worldwide subject sustainably changing the payments sector. As competitive and regulatory pressure rises world- wide, financial institutes quickly realise that they have to redesign their payment systems. The cost pressure for conventional payment architectures also promotes the consolidation of redundant features. Furthermore, consumers claim rapidity, convenience and simplicity for payments. Within one decade, real-time payments around the clock have emerged as key driver for innovations in the payments sector; in many parts of the world, this technology has become the norm. The drivers of such payment systems vary between cost reduction, increased efficiency and better customer service – and, of course, the adherence of regulatory and compliance guide- lines. One of the outcomes has been the European Banking Association’s pan-European SEPA instant payments system RT1 introduced in 2017.

This also expands the complexity and the additional technological levels which have to be supported by banks, companies and traders. Of course, rapidity and convenience are crucial for East Europe, too. Consequently, the Česká spořitelna in the Czech Republic has recognised the need for a modern and future-proof solution. With a balance sheet total of 33.7 billion euros, more than 10,000 employees, more than 600 local branches and five million clients, the Czech financial institution is the biggest commercial bank in the Czech Republic. The subsidiary of the Erste Group supervises more than 16 million clients in seven countries and is thus one of the biggest bank groups in Central and East Europe.

Compared to payment transactions with credit cards, real-time payments are considerably less expensive for the traders. Source: statista.com
