SPARK CLEARING & SETTLEMENT

  • Regulatory Compliance & Liability Risk Mitigation

    Ensures full compliance with national switch rules and scheme dispute deadlines while reducing exposure to penalties.

  • Chargeback & Liability Loss Minimization

    Reduces avoidable chargeback losses and automatic liability transfers.

  • Revenue & Commission Engine

    Ensures accurate calculation, validation, and recovery of interchange and commission fees to eliminate leakage and safeguard profitability.

Banks and financial institutions face fragmented authorization, clearing, and core banking systems, complex reconciliation processes, and growing compliance pressure that increase operational risk, delay settlements, and drive up processing costs.

  • The Spark Clearing, Settlement & module is the financial integrity engine of the Spark platform. It acts as the critical bridge between the real-time world of payment authorizations (Switch) and the accounting reality of the Core Banking System (CBS).

  • Designed for high-volume financial institutions, this suite eliminates the operational chaos of manual reconciliation. It automates the complex "N-Way" matching of transactions across Switch logs, Scheme files, and Core Banking entries.

  • Beyond balancing the books, it provides a rigorous, legally compliant workflow for Dispute Management (Chargebacks), protecting the bank’s P&L against fraud liability and reducing the operational cost of claims processing.

Intelligent Financial Control Across National and International Payment Ecosystems

Operating across national and international payment schemes shouldn’t mean managing operational chaos. Yet for many banks, reconciliation gaps, complex settlement rules, dispute pressures, and limited liquidity visibility create unnecessary risk, regulatory exposure, and revenue leakage. Fragmented systems and manual controls only amplify these challenges.

The clearing and settlment module transforms this complexity into a streamlined, automated control framework:

  • Automating N-way reconciliation across switch logs, scheme files, and core banking systems
  • Ensuring compliant and timely generation of national (SIBTEL) and international settlement files
  • Embedding a structured, end-to-end dispute and chargeback workflow
