FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NMI AND INFINICEPT ANNOUNCE INTEGRATION RELATIONSHIP Infinicept’s Best In Class Underwriting And Boarding Capabilities To Complement NMI’s Powerful Facilitator Enablement (FACe) Platform LAS VEGAS – May 10, 2017 – Payments technology innovators NMI and Infinicept today announced a collaborative relationship that allows for Infinicept’s advanced underwriting and frictionless boarding modules to be integrated with NMI’s industry-leading facilitator enablement (FACe) platform. The combination creates a unique and powerful end-to-end boarding, underwriting and processing framework for payment facilitators using NMI’s FACe platform. “Over the past few years, we recognized the need to build payment technology that enables payment facilitators to manage, monitor and support their sub-merchants.,” said Roy Banks, chief executive officer of NMI. “Additionally, and just as important, are the tools and technology required to board and underwrite merchants. The fact that Infinicept is backed by the industry’s leading underwriting risk experts, and their payment facilitator boarding and underwriting platform is unlike anything we’ve seen, it was a natural choice to team up with them.” Like most integration relationships, both companies will work independently to equip customers with their respective services, but work together to ensure seamless integration, operation and customer support. “NMI was quick to recognize the growth opportunity in the payment facilitator market and they’ve been innovative in their approach to building their FACe platform with exceptional back office tools,” said Todd Ablowitz, co-founder and chief executive officer of Infinicept. “The integration of Infinicept’s automated frontend sub-merchant boarding and underwriting modules makes it possible for their customers to quickly go-to-market with exactly the support systems they need.” One such company is SwervePay, a Chicago based software and payments provider. SwervePay is a longtime NMI partner that began using the FACe platform over a year ago as it began transitioning into a Payment Facilitator. To accomplish their goals, SwervePay required a robust underwriting system that could adequately manage risk while quickly on-boarding customers. Before choosing Infinicept, SwervePay considered building its own system while it vetted other off-the shelf options. However, these options lacked the required integration into FACe, the innovative social scoring as well as the automated underwriting dashboard that makes analyzing KYC data easy. -more-
