Getnet Platforms is part of Santander Payment Solutions and brings together a set of key platforms within Santander's global payments technology ecosystem. It includes software-as-a-service capabilities across the entire payments value chain, such as account-to-account processing, FX, SWIFT connectivity, fraud management and card processing infrastructure.
It enables financial institutions, non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) and payment service providers (PSPs) to operate, scale and evolve their payment capabilities across multiple rails, markets and regulatory environments, without the need to rebuild their core systems.
Proven at scale, including within Santander itself, these platforms provide a modular foundation that complements Getnet's global payment capabilities to support client growth through payments.
