SEPA, SEPA Instant, & SWIFT Payments

Tuum’s payments module supports a variety of payment types including FPS (Faster Payments Service), SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area), SEPA Instant, and SWIFT (Society for Worldwide International Financial Telecommunications) transfers, enabling users to configure a truly global payments offering. FPS is the UK-based payment scheme. SEPA allows customers to cashless euro payments – via credit transfer – to anywhere in the European Union, as well as a number of non-EU countries. With SEPA Instant, transfers can be made within seconds, 24/7 and with funds available to recipients immediately. With SWIFT capabilities, money transfers can be made on a global scale.

Additionally, we also support FPS (Faster Payments Service) through our connectors with Banking Circle and LHV.

Connector: Banking Circle

Tuum’s connector with Banking Circle gives our clients the ability to access global cross-border payments in 25 major currencies, including direct clearing in multiple currencies through connections to the local payment rails. We are also able to process FX orders with rates provided by Banking Circle, and can support both single and multi-currency payments.

Banking Circle currently processes over 6% of Europe’s B2C e-commerce flows and, in 2021, it processed over €250b in payments volumes.
