The competitive edge: how AI-powered payment intelligence drives go-to-market speed for card issuers

Who truly owns compliance in the card BaaS ecosystem?

Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) has reshaped the issuing ecosystem, enabling Fintechs to scale fast while banks monetise their infrastructure. But one fact remains unchanged: the issuing bank always holds the regulatory risk. When a FinTech partner breaches a rule, it’s the licensed bank, not the Fintech, that faces fines, penalties, and reputational fallout. Kajo Payment Intelligence empowers banks to reclaim control in this shared ecosystem. By automatically ingesting and contextualising Visa, Mastercard, and other scheme mandates, Kajo translates complex requirements into actionable, trackable tasks. Banks can assign responsibilities across internal teams or BaaS partners and maintain a real-time, auditable trail for every compliance action.

How Kajo turns compliance headcount into innovation capital

In traditional banking and payments, compliance is treated as an unavoidable cost, requiring large teams to manually process scheme updates, interpret mandates, and manage endless spreadsheets. As businesses expand, this often means hiring more compliance FTEs, diverting resources away from innovation. Kajo Payment Intelligence flips this model. By automating manual compliance workflows, from document ingestion and tagging to task tracking and knowledge sharing, Kajo frees up valuable specialist capacity. Teams shift from administration to strategy, unlocking measurable ROI through efficiency, risk reduction, and smarter resource allocation. With Kajo, compliance no longer scales as a cost. It scales as an advantage. Institutions can reinvest time and budget into new product development, market expansion, and innovation, transforming compliance headcount into true innovation capital.

Democratising payment network knowledge: how AI empowers Operations and IT teams for next-gen card services

Operational agility defines the success of next-gen card issuers, yet most institutions still suffer from fragmented, siloed payment network knowledge. Compliance teams hold the keys to vital Visa and Mastercard mandates, leaving IT and Operations waiting for delayed, second-hand information that slows delivery and increases risk. Kajo, the AI-powered Payment Intelligence platform, eliminates this bottleneck. Its Ask Kajo Intelligence (KI) and metadata tagging engine instantly translate complex scheme documentation into actionable, department-specific insights. IT teams gain early visibility for system updates, Operations teams receive real-time process guidance, and Compliance gains time for strategic work. By democratising payment network knowledge, Kajo transforms compliance from a reactive process into a collaborative, proactive workflow, uniting teams, accelerating delivery, and ensuring every mandate becomes an opportunity for innovation and speed.
