Barclays puts corporate customers in cloud

Barclays is laying claim to a first of its kind cloud-based contingency payment service corporate banking access channel. As a result of a partnership with AccessPay, its corporate customers will now be able to gain access to an additional means of managing payments should they be unable to get in via their primary channel. They can also initiate payments using a laptop separate to their primary infrastructure via a new Contingency Payment Access solution.

Michael Mueller, managing director, head of cash management at Barclays Corporate Banking, says: “Our clients want to have certainty that they will be able to manage cash and make payments whenever and wherever they need to, and we are constantly looking to design new innovative services around their needs. Through this new partnership with AccessPay, Barclays can uniquely offer a new seamless service to clients which is even more convenient, flexible and resilient.”
