About Mastercard Payment Switch

A digital onboarding and account-switching solution that enables customers to securely update their recurring payments and direct deposit information across multiple merchants and service providers.

Mastercard Payment Switch is a specialized open finance solution designed to simplify the bank switching process for consumers. By integrating with Mastercard's Open Finance suite—powered by Finicity—it allows financial institutions to embed direct deposit and recurring payment switching directly into their digital onboarding flows. This capability addresses a major pain point for customers who are often hesitant to switch banks due to the complexity of moving payroll and recurring bills. By automating these tasks, the product helps banks accelerate account funding and drive account primacy. The solution has demonstrated strong performance in real-world deployments, such as with Citizens, where it helped streamline the digital journey and improve conversion rates. It is primarily targeted at financial institutions looking to modernize their onboarding experience and strengthen long-term customer relationships.
