Strategic Payments Platforms and Infrastructure
April 24, 2025
Bottomline, a global leader in business payments, has been awarded “Cross-Border Payment Company of the Year: North America” by International Banker. The category recognises organisations that use innovative technologies, strategic partnerships, and operational excellence to improve financial connectivity worldwide.
International Banker relies on nominations from its readers to identify financial institutions and banking technology providers worldwide that demonstrate significant impact and operate at the forefront of the industry. Award judges recognised Bottomline’s Universal Aggregator solution and its value-add overlay services for addressing cross-border payment challenges, such as high costs, slow processing times, limited accessibility, and lack of transparency.
Aimed at helping banks and payment service providers (PSPs) compete more effectively, Bottomline introduced Bottomline Universal Aggregator (UA)—a fully hosted, API-enabled SaaS platform designed to deliver global connectivity services. Through this single platform, financial institutions and enterprise corporates have an “easy plug-in” to an array of payment clearing and settlement systems around the world.
“In a world where connectivity knows no bounds and geography is just a backdrop, we are dedicated to empowering our customers,” says Vitus Rotzer, global product lead for Bottomline’s financial messaging solutions. “Our mission is to arm customers with solutions to navigate the complexities of ever-evolving regulations, embrace new file formats, adapt to emerging payment schemes, and build resilience against the constant threat of fraud.”
As a global business payments leader, Bottomline is honoured to serve 16 of the top 20 US banks with its products. Moreover, six top US banks use elements of UA’s connectivity services.

We use an auto-login link to ensure optimum security for your members hub. Simply enter your professional work e-mail address into the input area and you’ll receive a link to directly access your account.

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association
Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.
For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.
The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
