At its core, Open Banking is a technology that enables financial institutions to communicate, whilst allowing customers to grant access to the account information or payment initiation. The initiative is designed to bring more competition and innovation to the financial services landscape.
Mode’s new functionality leverages the power of Open Banking to offer its UK customers a new solution allowing them to make seamless top-ups into their Mode Sterling account.

The new feature represents the first move to demonstrate Mode’s commitment to Open Banking and is the beginning of many other features to come.
