Multibank-capable Web application for German and international corporate clients on the basis of the Electronic Banking Internet Communication Standard (EBICS) for settlement of payments and the retrieval of account information.
In addition to manual entry, orders can also be uploaded via file and signed EBICS compliant by electronic signature. For this, a signature stick (USB) with a pre-installed Web browser is provided to the customer together with a smart card. Using the so-called Distributed Electronic Signature orders can be authorized anywhere, anytime by several users (even across different customers). The multibank capability also allows management of third-party bank accesses via EBICS in a single application.
The application is offered in Germany and 17 foreign locations in 12 languages.
The application has been awarded with the "Technology Innovation Award - Best Solution Innovation" in 2014 by TMI.
