Details on IRIS’s cardless bank payment app launch

IRISPay brings an alternative to Mastercard or Visa for Southeastern Europe, enabling merchants to process payments directly through Open Banking. This reduces transaction costs to a 0.59% fee, thus users can save up to 50% on transaction costs. Moreover, no other hidden fees or monthly subscriptions are applied.

Another feature present for users is the speed at which the funds are credited. For banks that support instant payments, transactions are processed in ten seconds directly into the merchant’s bank account. The payments can be completed via the customer’s banking app with four clicks, according to IRIS.

This, along with decreased intermediaries and compliance with PSD2 regulations, are the benefits users can leverage using IRISPay.

The company aims to offer merchants, retailers, medical and dental clinics, brokers, ecommerce platforms, and professionals access to faster, cost-effective, and simple payment methods.
