Case Study: ClearBank achieves instant, secure banking with Microsoft Azure

Bringing Banking into the 21st Century with ClearBank

ClearBank, a UK clearing bank, faced the challenge of outdated legacy systems in the banking sector that relied on slow batch processing. Their goal was to create a modern, instant payment service, but they required a secure and agile technology platform. They turned to Microsoft and its Azure cloud platform to build a new foundation.

By leveraging Microsoft Azure and partnering with Elastacloud, ClearBank built a secure, API-driven banking platform. The solution enabled instant payments and allowed for new services to be integrated by partners in as little as eight weeks. With the security support of the Microsoft Redmond Cyber Security center, the bank was protected against cyber threats. Microsoft's partnership was crucial in helping ClearBank successfully build and launch the world's leading payments and transactional banking platform.
