Finastra Global PAYplus is a next-generation payments hub designed to help financial institutions modernize, consolidate, and scale their payment operations within a single, unified platform. It serves as a central processing engine that integrates multiple payment types, including high-value, real-time, mass, and cross-border payments into a single cohesive system, eliminating the need for fragmented legacy infrastructure. At its core, Global PAYplus is built on a modular, API-driven, and cloud-agnostic architecture, enabling banks to deploy the solution on-premise, in private or public cloud environments, or as a managed service. This flexibility allows institutions to adopt modernization strategies at their own pace while maintaining operational continuity. The platform is ISO 20022-native, enabling banks to meet evolving regulatory requirements and industry standards more efficiently, with reduced complexity and faster compliance cycles. One of the key strengths of Global PAYplus is its ability to unify diverse payment rails and processes into a single hub. By centralizing workflows, routing, and business rules, it improves straight-through processing (STP), reduces operational overhead, and enhances transparency across payment operations. Its configurable rules engine and pre-certified workflows allow banks to quickly adapt to new payment schemes, market infrastructures, and customer demands without extensive redevelopment. The platform is also designed for high performance and resilience. Leveraging microservices and modern cloud technologies, Global PAYplus supports 24/7 availability and can handle millions of transactions daily, ensuring scalability during peak volumes and uninterrupted service delivery. Ultimately, Global PAYplus enables financial institutions, particularly large and complex, multi-country banks, to transform their payments infrastructure into a future-ready, agile ecosystem. Reducing system silos, simplifying operations, and enabling rapid innovation, it helps banks deliver faster, more secure, and more efficient payment services in an increasingly real-time and globalized financial landscape.
