Volante launches a “plug and play” Ripple integration solution
Volante Technologies has launched a new solution – as part of its VolPay Foundation payments platform – for integration with Ripple’s distributed ledger technology.
Volante’s software has been Ripple-ready since last autumn, says the vendor, and following “close engagement with Ripple” it has now brought to market an “integration solution wholly designed to simplify the connectivity to Ripple”.
According to Volante, the new offering “encompasses the necessary workflow, message transformation, and payment orchestration requirements to allow banks a significantly simpler method of integrating with Ripple’s payment network, both on the sending and receiving side, with minimal if any changes to their existing payment systems”.
Neil Clarke, Volante’s market engagement director, comments that the aim has been to make integration with Ripple “a plug and play process”.
