iPiD, a payment validation solutions provider, announced the publication of the whitepaper ‘Verification of Payee: The Race to Compliance.’ This comprehensive guide offers payment service providers (PSPs) an in-depth analysis and actionable strategies to comply with the European Verification of Payee (VoP) mandate by October 2025.
The VoP mandate represents a significant evolution in payment security, setting new standards to prevent misdirected payments and shifting liability from payers to PSPs. iPiD’s whitepaper outlines the technological, operational, and strategic adjustments necessary for PSPs to achieve compliance, emphasising the importance of interoperability, open data services, and the integration of secure API endpoints across the European payments ecosystem.
The whitepaper gathers insights from industry players spanning financial and technological sectors. Contributors include representatives from Microsoft, Capgemini, Finastra, LexisNexis Risk Solutions, Sis ID, the Dutch Payments Association, and Bottomline. They offer valuable perspectives on various aspects of VoP implementation and its impact on fraud prevention, emphasising the need for collaboration and standardised approaches.
With the Verification of Payee mandate, we stand at a critical juncture in enhancing payment security and integrity across Europe, said executives from iPiD. Their whitepaper not only guides PSPs through the compliance journey but also illuminates the path towards leveraging these changes for developing premium payment security solutions. It’s a testament to the collaborative effort of leading industry experts to fortify the payment ecosystem against fraud.
The whitepaper provides a roadmap for PSPs, detailing the steps for compliance within the near future, including reviewing core banking capabilities, engaging with local payment systems, and leveraging specialist providers for streamlined VoP implementation.
