FIS and Visa Expand Partnership to Equip Regional Banks with Advanced Payment Solutions

FIS

FIS®, a global financial technology leader, has announced a strategic expansion of its long-standing partnership with Visa to deliver advanced payments capabilities to regional and community banks. The enhanced collaboration is aimed at democratizing access to next-generation financial technologies, enabling smaller institutions to better compete with larger players in an increasingly digital landscape.

By integrating Visa’s innovative solutions into its ecosystem, FIS is offering a suite of tools designed to drive revenue growth, customer retention, and fraud reduction. These include stop payment services for recurring charges, digital campaign management tools to boost marketing engagement, and Wallet Link—an embedded feature allowing digital cards to be added to wallets seamlessly. Additionally, the integration features advanced e-commerce fraud mitigation aimed at boosting approval rates and reducing liability for chargebacks.

“According to Experian, the average American holds nearly four credit cards, highlighting the need for issuers to have efficient systems to stay competitive,” said Chris Como, head of Cards and Money Movement at FIS. “By integrating Visa’s advanced solutions into the FIS ecosystem, we are helping to level the technological playing field for those providers, illustrating our commitment to unlocking financial technology to the world.”
