Juniper Research Future Digital Awards recognise financial utility
for innovative banking solution
London, 3rd December 2018 – Ground-breaking financial utility, Banking Circle, has added another award to its cabinet – winning Best B2B Payments Platform in the Juniper Research Future Digital Awards.
Juniper Research launched in 2001 and specialises in identifying and appraising new high growth market sectors within the digital ecosystem. These awards, decided by a panel of expert judges, identify organisations which have made outstanding contributions to their industry and are positioned to make a significant impact in the future.
Despite living in an age of international interconnection and e-commerce, cross border payments remain a stumbling block – stifling business growth. Payments made through traditional correspondent banking relationships have not changed in decades and do not serve businesses well – the process is too expensive and too slow, and exchange rates are often poor.
Anders la Cour, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Banking Circle commented:
“Banking Circle Virtual IBAN gives FinTechs the unique ability to offer their merchants the facility to pay suppliers and partners directly from a web interface delivered by them, in their name, but without the need for investment in in-house infrastructure. This is done without any loss of time or cash, truly empowering global trade. Winning this award is a great honour, and testament to the dedication and innovative thinking of our entire team.”

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association
Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.
For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.
The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
