Netlink Payment Hub


Replace point-to-point interfaces with one integration platform

Banking applications, SWIFT infrastructure, payment networks, and back-office systems are often joined by point-to-point interfaces. Each new connection adds cost, and every change ripples across the others. The Netlink Integration Platform brings this connectivity into a single, modular layer.

What it is.

Modular Integration Platform

 The Netlink Integration Platform (NIP) connects banking applications, SWIFT infrastructure, payment networks, and enterprise systems through one platform built from independent modules.

Why it matters.

Modernize Without Disruption

 You deploy only the capabilities you need now and add more over time, without redesigning your integration. Existing systems stay in place while you modernise.

How it helps.

Intelligent Process Automation

 Configurable rules automate message processing, routing, validation, and exception handling. ISO 20022 runs end to end, with MT and MX translation during migration.

Overview



NIP is built from independent modules that work together or run on their own. This lets you introduce capabilities in steps while keeping existing investments. Connectivity uses REST APIs, message queues, SFTP, databases, file interfaces, and event-driven services, with no proprietary lock-in.

Module
What it does

Integration Framework

Connects banking applications, SWIFT, payment systems, APIs, databases, and files.

Message Transformation

Converts ISO 20022, SWIFT FIN, XML, JSON, CSV, and proprietary formats.

Workflow Engine

Automates routing, approvals, repairs, retries, and processing decisions.

Validation Engine

Checks message structure, mandatory fields, business rules, and reference data.

Routing Engine

Routes transactions by message, scheme, destination, currency, customer, or rule.

SWIFT Connectivity

Connects to Alliance Access, Alliance Cloud, SWIFT APIs, and Essentials services.

API Gateway

Provides reusable APIs for initiation, tracking, enquiries, and integration.

Monitoring & Operations

Centralises dashboards, queues, alerts, SLAs, audit trails, and transaction tracking.

NIP runs on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid model, so the deployment can match your operational and compliance constraints. It is designed for high-volume financial messaging with resilience and complete transaction traceability.

Benefits



 Less integration complexity

Replace point-to-point interfaces with a central platform, so a change in one system does not ripple across the rest.


 Faster delivery

Reusable banking connectors and configurable components shorten project timelines.


 Higher straight-through processing

Workflow automation and validation reduce manual handling and downstream errors.


 Ready for what comes next

An open, modular architecture supports evolving payment standards and new SWIFT services.

FAQs


No. NIP is modular. Each capability can run on its own or together, so you introduce modules in steps while keeping existing systems.
Through REST APIs, message queues, SFTP, databases, file interfaces, and event-driven services, based on industry standards rather than proprietary connectors
Alliance Access, Alliance Cloud, SWIFT APIs, and SWIFT Essentials services including gpi, Payment Pre-validation, Case Management, and SwiftRef.
Yes. NIP supports on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployment, so the model can match your operational and compliance requirements.
NIP is the underlying integration platform. The Payment Hub applies it to payment processing across rails, and NIP is also the basis for replacing IPLA and SIL connectivity.
