Introduction to the documentation


Welcome to Mipise Payment Services Documentation

Welcome to the official documentation of Mipise Payment Services (MPS), a complete and EU-compliant Core Banking solution designed to seamlessly integrate financial operations into your platform.

Whether you are scaling a crowdfunding platform, a marketplace, or a disruptive investment service, MPS delivers the robust, regulated infrastructure and core banking modules essential to your growth.

1. Plug and play

Beyond turn-key features, our strength lies in our plug-and-play architecture. We provide a solid foundation while giving you the freedom to customize your stack.

  • Regulated Foundation: Fully compliant infrastructure to secure your operations.
  • Modular Options: Select from a wide range of optional modules to build your fit solution.
  • Business Alignment: Build a custom solution that perfectly aligns with your business logic and your specific activity.

2. Seamless Front-Office Integration (White-Label)

We believe your users should stay in your environment. Unlike legacy PSPs that force redirects or hijack the user journey, MPS is designed for a completely invisible integration into your front-office.

  • Total UX Control: You design the interfaces; our APIs handle the heavy lifting in the background. No interference, no third-party branding, just a fluid experience adapted to your target audience.
  • Frictionless Onboarding: We transformed the notoriously complex compliance onboarding into a smooth, API-driven process.
  • Instant Account Creation: A highly appreciated feature - you can create a user, open a Payment Account, and generate a dedicated IBAN instantly, even before the KYC validation process is fully completed. This allows your users to start their journey (e.g., receiving funds) immediately, drastically reducing drop-off rates. (Note: To maintain strict regulatory compliance, outgoing transfers and Pay-outs remain safely blocked until the user's KYC profile is 100% validated).
  • You Own the Relationship: We stay behind the scenes. Your support team remains the single point of contact for your users, avoiding the confusion of sending them to a third-party payment provider for help.

3. Ready-to-Use Business Workflows

Instead of just providing payment tools, MPS is built to power complete business lifecycles:

  • Crowdfunding & Fundraising: Securely collect funds from investors, hold them in a dedicated Escrow account, and trigger automated transfers to the project's SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle) once the campaign is validated.
  • Marketplaces & Commissioning: Easily route incoming payments, execute automated fee splitting (Split payments), and disburse sellers or service providers securely.
  • Investment & Yield Distribution: Automate the mass distribution of dividends, interest, or capital repayments directly to your investors' internal accounts.

4. A Comprehensive Functional Scope

Our solution offers a broad operational scope to cover every aspect of your financial management:

  • Onboarding & Compliance (KYC/KYB): Streamlined identity verification, document validation, and strict AML/CFT screening (including Blacklist and Greylist management) to keep your platform compliant.
  • Account & Ledger Management: Creation of dedicated Payment Accounts (Wallets) for natural and legal persons, allowing you to easily track user balances.
  • Money-In (Collections): Accept funds via Credit Cards, Bank Wires, and SEPA Direct Debits. We fully support electronic signatures via SMS OTP for both B2C (Core) and B2B mandates.
  • Internal Operations (P2P): Execute instant, zero-latency internal transfers. Essential for escrow management and commission splitting without relying on external banking networks.
  • Money-Out (Disbursements): Secure outbound transfers (Pay-outs) to validated external bank accounts, including built-in manual compliance reviews for high-value transactions.
  • Dispute & Exception Handling: A clear operational flow for managing Refunds, Chargebacks, and SDD R-Transactions (unpaid direct debits).
  • Real-Time Synchronization: A robust Webhook engine delivering a "Minimal Payload" to instantly update your platform's state, ensuring flawless accounting and operational reconciliation.

5. Why Mipise Payment Services?
