#1: Meet the SWIFT gpi Industry Challenge Winners
We’ve been working on a major project with the team at SWIFT on a SWIFT gpi proof-of-value (PoV). This partnership came about when we won the SWIFT gpi Industry Challenge back in 2017, which asked firms to come up with ideas for the biggest challenges facing cross-border payments right now. Our proposal was designed to make it easier for corporates to enjoy visibility over in-flight cross-border payments. The grand unveiling will be at Sibos 2018, so you won’t want to miss out!
#2: Meet the stars of GPI Friday
Have your autograph books ready and mobile phones on standby for #StarSelfies – You can meet the stars behind the world famous “GPI Friday” video series at Sibos 2018.
The series is fronted by James Higgins, Product Director at AccessPay, with Product Manager Andy Howarth making the duo. Watch the videos, as they have used them to talk about the hottest topic in payments right now. Come along to stand DZ03 and pick their brains!

#4: Browse the fintech marketplace
You can also check us out at the at Sibos’ Discover Zone fintech marketplace. The marketplace, where fintechs reveal new innovations, was a big hit when it was first held last year. As one of the cutting-edge fintechs displaying, we’ll reveal more of the kinds of innovations which saw us named the UK’s fastest growing fintech outside of London in last year’s Deloitte UK Technology Fast 50 list.
Get an edge by seeing what fintechs and banks are working on together here. Remember that things like open banking and PSD2 are changing how businesses handle cash. Open banking, for instance, allows third parties to build apps and services around a financial institution. This is giving banks more reason than ever to work with fintechs (91% said they want to do this in a recent poll), as doing so can help them provide a better offerings to customers, so there’s sure to be some amazing things to see from them.
#5: Bring value to your customers
A trip to see AccessPay at Sibos 2018 could ultimately help you create value for customers. This is because we bring corporates and banks closer together with a platform that connects disparate banking and financial services products. With our help, you can put clients in control of their data, automate tasks like daily cash position forecasting and risk reporting, and ultimately remove the risk as well as the inefficiency that comes with working across disparate systems and portals.
