Payment Initiation Service (PIS)

The Nexi Payment Initiation service, through its licenses, allows banks and businesses to offer their customers a new digital payment option via traditional or instant bank transfers.
Customers will be able to easily make payments, via wire transfer, directly from the company's channels (e-commerce website or physical sales channel, thanks to the Pay-by-Link service), with the amount debited on their account.

Nexi's “plug-and-play” solution enables an easy implementation of the new service thanks to:

  • a best-in-class web and mobile front-end
  • native integration with Nexi's advanced acceptance gateway
  • the technological infrastructure needed to communicate with the banking system in the Open Banking environment, reaching all Italian gateways and the main foreign gateways
  • the licence system and all the functions necessary to meet regulatory obligations
  • a support service for companies and clients
  • an advanced anti-fraud engine
