Icon Solutions’ core product is the Icon Payments Framework (IPF) – an internationally proven payment development framework, trusted by tier 1 banks across the globe, such as Citi, NatWest and BNP Paribas.
IPF is designed to give banks the payments orchestration framework to independently accelerate the transformation of their payment infrastructure, allowing them to build, test and deploy payment processing solutions much faster, while staying in total control of timelines and costs.
IPF is both cloud and ISO 20022-native and is built to integrate smoothly with different payment schemes. It can be implemented independently by the organisation itself, via an SI, or by Icon consultants with on-the-ground experience in the banking space; with support constituting either just initial assessments and planning, short-term implementation projects, or ongoing IPF support.
"The low code aspect of the framework (Icon's IPF) empowers and enables organisations to control its delivery, and feature richness while the simple extensibility of the capability allows software engineers to focus on high value integrations and innovation."
Ian Povey, CIO Payments Technology, NatWest
“IPF enables Citi’s engineers to build, deploy and test capabilities rapidly. Coupled with independently deployable and evolvable micro-services, Citi will be able to horizontally scale for growing payments volumes and improve time to market.”
Nick Nadgauda, Head of Technology, Citi Service
