What is the scope of Numeral in the process of becoming a UK agency banking customer?

Numeral covers the connectivity with your UK sponsor bank, and guides you in the process of acquiring the relevant information from your UK sponsor bank related to this connectivity. Numeral does not intervene in your relationship with your UK sponsor bank, nor in any regulatory matter.

How does Numeral connect to banks?

For each bank and each payment method, we determine the best bank direct connectivity solution from available options (SFTP, EBICS, MQ, API, …). We then build the integration for the selection option, which consists in building the logic that transforms calls made to our API into messages and files accepted by the bank direct connectivity solution, and vice versa. We also build in the support and management of edge cases, bank servers unavailability, etc.
