Jiffy: Competitor Profile
Summary
Jiffy is an Italy-based mobile payment solution developed by SIA in October 2014. It is one of the leading P2P payment solutions in Europe with over 5 million users. The solution allows users to make P2P transfers in real-time on their smartphones. Jiffy allows money to be transferred by selecting the recipient from a mobile phone address book.
SIA collaborates with Italian banks, which offer Jiffy as an additional service through their mobile banking apps. Transfers using Jiffy can be made through bank apps once both sender and recipient are registered with Jiffy and have linked their mobile phone number and IBAN code. In August 2017, Jiffy extended its services for in-store payments. After a successful pilot in Milan and Bergamo, Jiffy has now commercially launched consumer-to-business (C2B) transfers. This enables its users to make in-store payments in real-time via Jiffy using QR code, geolocation, and NFC technologies.
Jiffy is now supported by over 130 banks, including Banca Mediolanum, BNL, Banca Popolare di Sondrio, Hello bank!, Inbank, Intesa Sanpaolo, Raiffeisen, UBI Banca, and UniCredit. Jiffy is open to all banks operating in the Single Euro Payments Area - meaning it has a potential user base of over 400 million European current account holders. In July 2019, SIA announced the rebranding of Jiffy to BANCOMAT Pay, although the Jiffy brand and its website are still operational.
