Open Banking Gateway Taler Wallet Top-Up/Merchant Verification
Add GNU Taler support to Open Banking Gateway
Transferring Euro to the Taler wallet should be quick, easy and flawless. Taler Open Banking Gateway (TOBG) will provide the technology to top-up a Taler wallet in a regulatory compliant, instant and user-friendly way. TOBG will use the Payment Initiation Services mechanism introduced and regulated under the revised European Payment Services Directive (PSD2). A German bank will support and run the platform, providing technical and regulatory alignment.
The project will help to improve adoption and usage of the Taler system significantly. It will also extend the existing Open Banking Gateway software with additional functionality, improved user experience and additional adaptors for European banks. The outcome will be a full functional solution with a focused scope of supported banks users can top-up from. Both the operators and the free and open source community will able to further extend the reach, functionality, supported channels and use cases. One of these use cases is to use Payment Initiation Services in merchant apps for account verification.
