INETCO Insight for Payment Monitoring
Overview
INETCO Insight® — Improving payment performance one transaction at a time
For financial institutions, retailers and payment service providers, a well-managed transaction delivery chain equates to happier customers and more revenue. The goal is to ensure every payment transaction completes as expected — across all ATM, POS, Card, Mobile, Online and Real-time Payments channels.
The acceleration of digital transformation has introduced new performance challenges. It is taking longer to detect and isolate transaction bottlenecks and failures due to increasing channel complexities, additional third party services and a higher velocity of payment data. While guaranteeing the stability of payment transactions remains a top priority, CIOs, IT and payment operations teams are also facing pressures to decrease operational costs and streamline the resource hours required to remediate issues affecting transaction performance. They are looking for ways to balance cost-to-serve and customer experience.
This is why they choose INETCO Insight®.
