4 Reasons CFOs are Embracing Open API's
May 5, 2020
TransCard
To CFOs, the notion of leveraging “open” technology may seem contradictory. CFOs have a duty to rigorously protect their company’s assets. Hold things close to the vest. But to ensure that their company keeps pace and remains competitive – constantly innovates, creates new services and channels, and addresses new regulations – CFOs must embrace open application program interfaces (APIs), tools that enable software programs to interact with each other.

How Open APIs Help Payors, Payees Get Down To Business
April 14, 2020
TransCard
Technology is changing the way we make & accept payments, and there’s no one better to attest to that fact and the rise of open APIs than our CTO – David Samples. The financial world has been living in the same enclosed systems for several decades, often focused on regulations and routing payments. The focus has always been on “how” to make a payment, and not on the “why” it’s being done. With open APIs, payors and payees do not have to figure out how to link up the technical “plumbing” that enables transactions in the first place.
