Client Case Study in partnership with PXP Financial

“With Prommt, risky telephone and other remote transactions are now streamlined into a simple, secure online process – enabling faster payments, improving cash flow, and ensuring data compliance. We’ve significantly reduced chargebacks, fraud, and the time spent chasing payments.

Within six months, processing payments via OPERA Cloud have driven a significant increase – more than double – in the payment volumes being facilitated by Prommt at the hotel. We highly recommend Prommt to any hotel looking to save time, reduce costs, and optimise their payment processes while delivering a superior guest experience.”

Pay by Bank (PBB) revolutionises bank payments by replacing the cumbersome process of sharing IBANs and account numbers with a seamless digital experience. Unlike card payments, PBB eliminates chargebacks, card fraud, and payment operation costs, making it a game-changer for high-value transactions. Additionally, PBB does not incur scheme or interchange fees.

In our latest client insights paper, we share key findings to date.

Highlights include:

• PBB performs best when combined with Card. Prommt’s payment orchestration controls drive adoption and reduce costs for high-value payments without affecting customer experience. Over 60% of Prommt’s clients have adopted PBB.
• Payment failure rates are significantly lower for Bank than for Card, with average success rates exceeding 93%.
• PBB accounts for 25% of our total payment volume (TPV).
• The automotive sector is the most popular for Pay by Bank, representing over 88% of TPV, with the highest single transaction in this sector reaching £95,000.
