Youtap Cloud platform connects to banking and traditional payment networks through different interfaces and via blockchain for digital payments, interbank, interbranch and cross-border settlement.

Youtap chief marketing officer Peter Meredith said: “Providing the payment platform as a cloud-based service allows for faster delivery and implementation. Mobile money providers can transform their business quickly and gain an edge over the competition in their markets.

“Other merchant payment platforms may take months to install. Youtap’s cloud-based white label solution can be skinned for mobile money services in a matter of weeks. Merchants with a participating service can download the Android app, register and start processing digital payments in less than 24 hours.”

Youtap Cloud would support Android and Linux based devices and can be integrated with devices issued by Verifone, Pax and Ingenico.
