The connected payment hub

Selecting a payment hub: what are the next steps?

When you decide that you want to set up a payment factory in your company, there are a couple of steps that you need to take. First, of course, you may already know the payment hub market and have a good idea of the payment hub solution providers you would like to talk to – you may meet many at finance and treasury trade shows. So it's good to do window shopping at this stage and discover more. We recently wrote an article on selecting a payment hub that could be useful in the process of finding the right solution.

Setting up a payment factory? Include the IT department from the start


Before you engage in a conversation with the different vendors, you should involve all the key stakeholders from your company – including IT and possibly also procurement – and understand the functionalities you will need. Then, make sure you list everything by aligning it with your roadmap. For example, the payment hub you select should be a future-proof solution, meaning that you can add more functionalities later, such as reconciliation, or even work with the same vendor to improve liquidity management and cash flow forecasting.

Understand the payment hub market


You can either shortlist payment hub vendors and get in touch with them to book a demo or start an RFI and RFP process to get all the answers to your questions. Either way, this list is here to help you to make the most informed decision about what's available on the payment hub market.
