As an international B2B business, your ability to accept and make commercial payments can be a growth-limiting factor.

The B2B payments industry is fragmented, making it hard for businesses to access the payment capabilities they need with seamless, cohesive user experiences across multiple geographies. But Fintech-as-a-Service represents a game-changer, giving B2B businesses the freedom to accept and make payments using local payment methods anywhere they do business, without investing in the back-office expertise and technical integrations that once limited growth.

Why Global B2B Payments Are Complex

Many modern B2B payment providers focus on a specific specialty solution, forcing B2B companies to stitch together disparate systems to do everything they need.

B2B companies must typically manage a messy mix of:

  • Banks
  • Accounts payable and receivables systems
  • Payment acquirers and processors
  • Foreign exchange providers
  • Cross-border payment services and others

In the past, the only option was to undergo expensive and time-consuming integrations to multiple payment vendors and technologies. Now, Fintech-as-a Service is simplifying this process and making it easy for B2B organizations to accept and disburse payments anywhere using local methods.

Create Frictionless Experiences for Customers, Sellers and Partners

As commerce becomes more digital, many B2B companies are looking to transition their businesses to an online commerce model or to add ecommerce as a sales channel. B2B ecommerce can not only help you sell more, if implemented correctly with the right payment methods, it can also improve the customer experience. According to Gartner, “creating a better customer experience is the number one reason B2B businesses launch a digital commerce site.1

Fintech-as-a-Service is about providing the technologies B2B businesses need to develop grow digital commerce and improve customer experiences without having to build out payment infrastructure. This frees B2B businesses to focus on their core competencies and other essential elements of localization, such as providing local-language apps, websites and customer support.
