20.06.2023 - OSLO, NORWAY – Spense, a leading Norwegian payment solution that focuses on creating innovative customer journeys within the automotive industry, has partnered with Neonomics to offer open banking payments. Through this partnership, Spense has now further developed the customer journey to provide open banking payments on their platform in order to increase efficiency and security in its payments. Through open banking, customers of Spense are able to provide their end users a Pay from Account feature, making direct account-to-account payment using BankID or similar, right from the web browser.

Spense provides a unique payment platform that’s specifically designed for the automotive industry in Norway, and has built an impressive customer and partner list including Mekonomen Company, Porsche, and Skoda. Their mission is to create a frictionless end-user experience when it comes to buying and paying for cars and car services.  

Jonas Lisgård, CEO of Spense says: "We believed Neonomics was well suited to what we’re doing at Spense, as we both focus on providing great customer journeys and user experiences. We have adopted Neonomics’s open banking solution into our own platform meaning our end-users can pay right from their bank without even having to leave their web browser, and in addition there’s a significant administrative savings connected to payments done through Neonomics. We’re excited to collaborate further with Neonomics to further develop our customer journey with the use of open banking.”

Neonomics' open banking payment solution offers a significant benefit by seamlessly integrating into Spense's solution, ensuring a smooth and effortless user experience.

Christoffer Andvig, CEO of Neonomics added: “We’re a great fit for Spense, as they value high quality customer journeys and see how open banking can benefit that.
