Finance.

We specialise
in the production and outsourcing of
proprietary IT systems supporting the banking sector.

For over 10 years, we have created innovative IT solutions relating to the management and processing of payments. The experience acquired over the course of dozens of projects and implementations in the payment area led to the development of the comprehensive Atom Payment Hubsystem. Atom Payment Hub is a modular transaction platform designed for full automation (consolidation, verification, routing and accounting) of the processing and management of payments at the bank (supported channels (among others): ELIXIR, SWIFT, SEPA, Sorbnet, VISA, Express ELIXIR, BlueCash, PayU Express, internal bank systems).

The eSourcing factoring system is a comprehensive, flexible and efficient solution both for the factor and for the seller. It can be used for the automatic management of all factoring products available on the market, reducing the operating expenses of the factor and offering maximum simplicity and usefulness for the sellers.

The eSourcing factoring system consists of the following two main applications interfaced together:

  • eTrade – browser-based front-end system dedicated to sellers
  • Trade – platform for transactions and management of payments, providing full support for factoring process on the factor’s side.

These two separate applications create a single, comprehensive factoring solution; however, they may implemented separately and independently in a flexible fashion. Owing to its modular design, the factoring system is a very flexible solution capable of reproducing virtually every business process and operational process carried out by the factor and its sellers. During the joint analysis, our dedicated IT system works together with the client to identify and develop all key aspects of system operation so that the implemented solution is 100% in line with the needs of the factor and the sellers.

eTrade application 

The version for the seller, i.e. eTrade, essentially guides the user through the selection of receivables to be factored, and it uses non-invasive notifications. Statistics and reports and lists of receivables, with sorting and filtering by amount, date or business partner, help the clients to quickly establish the financial liquidity of the company and draw conclusions regarding the cooperation with the business partners. In combination with e-mail notifications, change of limits and deadlines for groups of contractors, they are also useful for the maintenance of financial liquidity, like the option of recovering the indicated receivables. The eTrade system enables virtually unrestricted extension in addition to the above-mentioned elements of the CRM panel.

Mobile application

Owing to the dedicated mobile application, the sellers have quick and easy access to the most important information about the current status of their factoring payments. A very useful new feature, particularly for smaller sellers, is the option of taking photographs of the invoices, which are then automatically scanned, digitised (OCR) and presented for buyout.

Matching

The matching feature is used to match the transfers with the individual receivables as payment for the fees for factoring services and payment of specific receivables, including the breakdown of the amount into invoices. The system identifies the transfers automatically, e.g. by the amount and description of the transfers. The matching function considerably reduces the time required to manage factoring by eliminating the need to manually allocate the payments.

Trade application

Platform for the factor enabling full control over the financing of the sellers' receivables, from the acceptance of contracts with a feature requiring confirmation by a second user, through the verification of the receivables to be financed to the monitoring of payments and their automatic management by the system or locking of financing after specific limits are exceeded. Extensive reporting system and department head supervision module for enhanced control. Security owing to reliable operation and IT support.


Sales workflow

The front-end system developed by eSourcing assists factors with the sales of factoring products. Using the dedicated website, it guides the clients interested in factoring products through the entire process – from lead generation, through the preparation and distribution of the quotations, requests, analysis and credit decision to the preparation and signing of the factoring contract and client onboarding.


Reports

The system is capable of generating pre-defined reports on sales for internal purposes and management purposes and reports meeting the formal requirements for accounting. The option of flexible configuration of such reports makes the work of the factor's operators much easier.

  • usefulness

    SERVICE DESCRIPTION

    Paper documents are still a part of most business processes. Using tools for text and image recognition, we help our clients to digitise data from paper media and use them for automation and improvement of operational activities and processes. Smart OCR solutions support back-office work and front-end processes, such as, for instance, photo payments. We use a comprehensive approach to OCR, including the creation of dedicated templates, verification stations, workflow or document archive.

    A new EU directive will become effective in 2018 – PSD2 – that regulates the common payments market. Due to technological development, the growing popularity of online services and the change of consumer behaviours, it became necessary to implement regulations designed to increase the protection of consumers, improve the convenience and safety of using payment services, reducing their costs and promoting financial innovation. It is expected that the new regulations will be accompanied by a number of changes and requirements, which may be broken down into 2 groups:

    • obligatory – passive in the context of the institutions that comply with them; they have to be implemented with a fairly specifically defined form and scope
    • active – designed to acquire new clients or increase the satisfaction of existing clients.

    eSourcing offers a package of products enabling the financial institutions to both adapt to the changing legal and business environment and to use the implementation of PSD2 to gain competitive advantage.

    PSD2 interface (Obligatory)


    Regardless of the adopted strategy, every financial institution will be obliged to provide third party providers (TPP), through a secure and fast interface, with information about the account (AIS) and the option of payment initiation (PIS). If you decide to meet this obligation using our platform, you can, on the one hand, satisfy the regulatory requirements arising from the provisions of PSD2 without having to develop the software on your own, which is both time-consuming and costly, and, on the other hand, learn who uses the data concerning your clients and how, at the same time maintaining full control over the process.


    PSD2 interface for TPPs

    The natural extension of the obligatory interface is its equivalent for the TPPs. Neither the applicable law nor the planned regulations prevent financial institutions or their subsidiaries from acting as TPPs. Consequently, we expect that most of them will be interested in both tools. Products developed based on this platform will be the natural counterbalance to the consequences of the implementation of the obligatory API. The most dynamic institutions, which give priority to relationships with the client, already openly refer to their plans to create consoles for accounts in multiple banks and provide them to the clients.

    MONEY HUB

    Both interfaces form the technical-integrating layer. Through MONEY HUB run as an independent application or as an extension of electronic and/or mobile banking, the clients will have a single, universal tool to order transactions, manage deposits, track the balance on their accounts, invest funds and obtain financing in all banks whose services they use.

    Additionally, using the integrated automatic analytical and predictive tools, the clients can optimise their portfolios (e.g. through cash pooling or transfer of all available funds to the bank with the best overnight deposit and distribute the funds to the original accounts in the morning). The primary objective is to deliver tools enabling flexible and effective management of the available funds in a simple manner to maximise profits and limit costs.
