- Ready for what’s next. Built to include any new payment instrument as your needs grow.
ABOUT CENDORA
Cendora is the evolving payments platform identity of Chequepoint. It reflects a product direction that goes beyond traditional clearing and gives financial institutions a clearer view of the portfolio when they evaluate payment processing, integration and operational visibility.
The portfolio is organized around four solution families: clearing and bulk payments, domestic payments, digital and mobile payments, and international payments. Reconciliation, reporting and adjacent banking services sit around them.
