Transactility, Inc. announced that the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System (NIBSS), Nigeria\u2019s central payment infrastructure operator, leveraged Transactility\u2019s jPOS open-source technology for the rollout of the National Payment Stack (NPS), a next-generation ISO-20022 instant payments platform designed and developed by NIBSS for Nigeria\u2019s payments ecosystem.<\/p>\n
NIBSS designed NPS using a modular architecture that combines NIBSS-developed capabilities with selected open and enterprise technologies. NIBSS selected Transactility\u2019s open-source stack, including the extreme-performance jPTS switch\u2014built on jPOS, the gold standard for ISO-8583 payment processing, used in billions of transactions worldwide daily\u2014as the foundation for the NPS.<\/p>\n
NIBSS has used jPOS within its payment infrastructure for many years, particularly for ISO 8583 transaction processing. For the National Payment Stack, NIBSS leveraged jPTS and its newly introduced ISO-20022 support to architect a switch purpose-built for the demands of Africa\u2019s largest economy.<\/p>\n
With full access to the source code and the full customizability of the Transactility stack, NIBSS retains control of the NPS architecture, product roadmap, and operational development, as well as the intellectual property developed by NIBSS for the platform. The use of open, source-accessible technologies also enables NIBSS to extend the platform and respond to market and regulatory requirements without relying on a proprietary vendor\u2019s release cycle.<\/p>\n
Commenting, Premier Oiwoh, Managing Director\/CEO, Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System (NIBSS), said:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NPS was designed and built for the scale and demands of the Nigerian payments market. The jPOS ecosystem gives us the flexibility to continue developing the platform as the ecosystem evolves.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n
NPS supports account-to-account instant transfers, QR merchant payments, alias-based addressing such as phone numbers, and bulk payments. It is designed to deliver the performance and availability required for national payment infrastructure while providing a foundation for new services as the market develops.<\/p>\n
The use of jPTS reflects NIBSS\u2019 approach to NPS: combining proven technologies with NIBSS\u2019 own payments expertise and engineering.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis development is an important milestone for Transactility and the wider payments community,\u201d said Alejandro Revilla<\/b>, Founder and CTO of Transactility. \u201cWe are proud that<\/i> NIBSS selected technologies from the jPOS ecosystem for the National Payment Stack. NPS shows how open technology and local engineering can be used to build national payment infrastructure at scale.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
