Visa Inks Pact With Financial Messaging Services Provider Swift To Boost Global Cross-Border B2B Payments

The two organizations plan to offer financial institutions and their customers increased options for international transfers, enhancing both the speed and transparency of transactions.

From October 2022, Visa B2B Connect has onboarded over 30 bank clients from 20+ countries, facilitating payments to 90 countries worldwide.

"By working with Swift, Visa will help enhance our financial institution clients' offerings to their corporate customers. The collaboration will help provide clarity and enhanced data, while removing errors before, during and after the payment," said Chris Newkirk, Global Head of Commercial & Money Movement Solutions at Visa.

This collaboration incorporates Swift Payment Pre-validation, allowing preliminary checks on Visa B2B Connect payments. 

This process identifies and rectifies possible errors before starting the payment, minimizing needless hold-ups.
