SAN GWANN, MALTA, March 15, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Finance Incorporated Limited (FIL) has obtained Visa membership for acquiring, giving it direct access to a set of services of the Visa global payments network.

By obtaining a Principle Acquiring membership licence, FIL adds a new distinctive achievement to the list of Company’s growing organisational successes and fulfils a significant strategic milestone for The Company. This brings with it a host of brand-new opportunities that encompass the delivery of a wide range of first-class services and payment solutions.

This applies across the board, from ecommerce applications to merchants that want to accept card payments directly on mobile phones and devices.

It is also an important step for the industry as non-bank financial institutions and Electronic Money Institutions are part of the future of the payments industry, allowing for a more competitive landscape in the sector. This also allows us to be faster to the market with innovations that leverage the Visa network.”

This step brings significant benefits to the corporate and industry sectors as it paves the way for large volumes of lower cost, frictionless transactions. The list of products that FIL is now able to offer directly includes:

1. IBAN accounts
