Description
The implementation of the PSD2 Directive on January 13, 2018, marked a pivotal moment in the digital evolution of the banking sector. This transformation affects the entire payments ecosystem, encompassing both banks and entities classified as banking service providers. A new landscape has emerged in which Third Party Providers (TPPs) are allowed to access account data and facilitate payments, contingent upon explicit consent from users, known as Payment Service Users (PSU). If you are a TPP or aspiring to become one, and you wish to integrate with our API platform, please check our “Get started” section for detailed guidance. Our platform represents the future of digital payments. The WWS Open API is designed to harness the opportunities presented by Open Banking and PSD2 regulations. Additionally, the WWS Open API sandbox offers TPPs a space to test functionalities available on the platform through sandbox APIs, ensuring they can innovate and refine their services effectively. This collaborative environment fosters innovation and encourages the development of new financial solutions.
