Automatia announced the launch of Finland’s first real-time multi-banking platform for mobile payments, named Siirto. Tieto has designed and implemented the service. Siirto is an open payment platform which follows the new regulations set by EU’s Payment Service Directive, paving the way for new innovations and payment solutions within the financial ecosystem. “Modern consumers are demanding real-time services in all aspects of their everyday life. That is why we are very excited and proud to launch Siirto” says Marko Vilo, the Managing Director of Automatia. Similar multi-banking and real-time services, like Swish in Sweden, have been greatly successful among consumers. The first Finnish banks are expected to launch their own mobile payment services, based on Automatia’s Siirto platform, in March 2017.
