Tribe Payments chosen as payments processing partner by embedded finance provider Orenda Finance.
We are delighted to announce that Tribe Payments has been chosen by Orenda Finance to provide their issuer processing. Founded in 2020 by Joshua Vittori, Orenda is a one-stop embedded financial service ecosystem, offering a suite of configurable products and services including no-code embedded financial services and an end-to-end programme manager.
Headquartered in London, Orenda’s plug and play solution does not require any API integration. With the company maturing, Orenda has decided that now is the right time to work directly with a payments processor in Tribe.
It's an exciting time for Orenda, as one of their customers – Íkualo – recently made the headlines with its recent strategic partnership with Visa. With the goal of promoting financial inclusion amongst Spain's immigrant community, Íkualo hopes to reach 70,000 active accounts in the country.
In addition to issuer processing, Orenda will also benefit from Tribe’s proprietary Risk Monitor platform, which allows for real-time assessment of banking transactions against an array of predefined conditions, along with the real-time assessment against global sanctions, PEP and Adverse Media databases. This will allow Orenda to ensure they have oversight and confidence in providing protection to their customers and meeting AML requirements for EMI licence holders.
Orenda will also benefit from Tribe’s in-house 3D Secure Solution (3DS), which provides a seamless authentication service for banks, fintechs and acquirers. 3DS has become an essential part of risk management and fraud prevention for any business that takes online payments.
Joshua Vittori, CEO of Orenda, commented: “Orenda has been able to issue 10,000 cards in under two months with Tribe being the processor. Ensuring a smooth process with Tribe is key for end-user functionality. We look forward to continued growth over the coming months and years.”
Jo Lawrence, Head of Customer Success at Tribe, adds: “We’re really excited to be working with Orenda in a relationship that also showcases our partnership with Monavate – who provide Orenda with BIN Sponsorship. As fintech enablers, we actually see a lot of ourselves in Orenda; we share the same mantra of maximising our agility and flexibility to get customers to market quickly and without hassle.”
