Nuapay Joins UK Public Sector Open Banking Framework

Nuapay (operating under Sentential Limited) a leading provider of Open Banking payment solutions is proud to announce its inclusion to a select number of approved suppliers on the Crown Commercial Service’s (CCS) Open Banking Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) framework. This prestigious designation positions Nuapay as a trusted partner for central and local government bodies seeking to leverage the power of Open Banking within their payment infrastructure.

The CCS Open Banking DPS serves as a centralised hub for public sector organisations to access a range of Open Banking services. This selection allows Nuapay to compete for tenders for Payment Initiation Services (PIS) issued by any public sector body with access to the DPS framework. This includes central government departments, local authorities, educational institutions, and non-profit organisations across the UK.

CEO of Nuapay, Brian Hanrahan, commented: 

“This achievement marks a significant milestone for Nuapay in our ongoing commitment to driving Open Banking innovation. We are thrilled for the opportunity to empower thousands of businesses and citizens interacting with government services to experience the numerous benefits of Open Banking and account-to-account payments. For over 20 years, Nuapay has consistently been at the forefront of this transformative technology, actively contributing to regulatory change and improving how businesses using local government services pay and get paid.”

Annemarie Graham, Director of Commercial and Partner Success at Nuapay, adds:

“This is an important next step for our partner network, allowing for collaboration, whilst enabling our partners to extend their proposition across the payments ecosystem within the public sector with the aid of Nuapay as their strategic partner.”

The CCS plays a vital role in optimising public sector procurement by identifying and sourcing high-quality common goods and services. The CCS recently marked its 10th anniversary and secured £3.8 billion in commercial benefits for the public sector in 2022/23, ensuring efficient use of taxpayer resources.

By joining the CCS Open Banking DPS framework, Nuapay demonstrates its unwavering commitment to delivering secure, efficient, and cost-effective Open Banking solutions for the public sector, fostering a more streamlined and user-friendly experience for citizens and businesses alike.
