Ant International has joined Swift‘s “Network Interoperability Reference Implementation” programme, a pre-pilot initiative designed to improve cross-border payment experiences.
This programme brings together various payment service providers to explore interoperability using Swift’s network and enhance payment transparency.
The initiative will explore different business scenarios involving end-to-end transaction tracking across banks and payment providers, including e-wallet use cases.
This collaboration builds on Ant International’s recent membership in Swift, further streamlining its connections to multiple banks.
