Objectives

  • Centralize payment operations across various channels (core banking, digital banking, and wire transfers)
  • Ensure ISO 20022 compliance for Fedwire by March 2025

  • ISO 20022 compliance: The CU has already been certified with the Fed for Fedwire ISO 20022, ensuring regulatory readiness, much ahead of the March 2025 deadline
  • Modern UI and architecture: Provides a clean, user-friendly interface to both backoffice users and customers, built on a scalable framework
  • Speed of implementation: Delivers rapid deployment on a 90-day framework, meeting critical deadlines and accelerating service rollouts
  • Seamless integration: APIs integrate smoothly with Wings' existing core, online banking and other 3rd party systems, minimizing disruption
