What is the Open Banking Framework?
Open Banking is rapidly growing as an alternative to traditional bank systems.
Instead of relying on card payments, Open Banking services provide citizens and businesses with an alternative method of paying and/or receiving money from the Public Sector.
This Open Banking Framework is the first of its kind, providing a vehicle for Central Government and the Public Sector (such as schools, councils, and the NHS) to source Open Banking services, including digital payment services, account information services and confirmation of payee (CoP) services.
Thinking of applying to Open Banking Framework?
GovData has two decades of experience supporting British businesses achieve success through Framework agreements, particularly IT Frameworks. Our founder and CEO Chris Hugo was pivotal in the creation of G-Cloud, the UK’s first and largest Framework.
Since 2006, our team has won access to £120bn for businesses across the United Kingdom.
Framework Scope – Open Banking
Buyers will be able to access a range of open banking services including:
Payment Initiation Service Providers (PISPs): PISPs let you pay companies directly from your bank account rather than using your debit or credit card through a third party, such as Visa or Mastercard
Account Information Service Providers (AISPs): being an authorised AISP means that a company can access an individual’s bank account data from their financial institution with their explicit consent.
To help buyers find the services and suppliers to meet their need, they will be able to use the following filters:
Service type | Total contract value | Hosting and delivery capabilities
