Why fintechs struggle with banking and payments
Fintech products move fast. Underlying banking infrastructure often does not.
Hard-to-secure banking relationships
Regulated fintechs still face long onboarding times, shifting risk appetites and sudden de-banking, even when the model and controls are sound.
Fragmented accounts and rails
Multiple banks and providers for different currencies, schemes and regions lead to scattered balances, complex operations and gaps in coverage.
Operational and compliance friction
High transaction volumes, multiple use cases and growing regulatory expectations around AML, KYC and safeguarding put pressure on lean teams and legacy tooling.
Compliance-first infrastructure for fintech growth
Clear Junction provides account and payment infrastructure that lets regulated fintechs launch, run and scale without rebuilding their banking stack every year.
Accounts that match your use case
Open corporate and client-money accounts in GBP and EUR, with the option to structure virtual accounts and vIBANs around customers, merchants or partners.
Fast, predictable payments
Connect to Faster Payments, CHAPS, SEPA and SEPA Instant from a single partner, with instant internal transfers between Clear Junction counterparties.
Infrastructure designed for volume and control
Use our API or web portal to manage accounts, initiate payments and access data for reconciliation, treasury and reporting.
From first conversation to live flows
How it works
We provide a clear path from first conversation to live payment flows.
Understand your model
We review your licences, products, customer profiles and fund flows to confirm they align with our risk appetite and regulatory obligations.
Design your account structure
Based on your use cases, we configure corporate and client-fund accounts, with single IBANs or virtual account and vIBAN structures to support your operational model.
Connect via API or portal
Your team integrates to our API or starts via the web portal to create accounts, manage balances and trigger pay-ins and pay-outs.
Run, optimise and scale
As volumes grow, we help refine account structures, routing and reporting so you can support new products, markets and currencies without changing core providers.
