B2B SaaS startup Nuclei, a digital engagement solution for banks, today announced the expansion of its industry collaboration to improve engagement and retention of customers on the bank's digital channels.

This is achieved by integrating third-party merchants and services into the bank's digital ecosystem, thus adding a merchant marketplace to their existing platforms. Nuclei is currently working with 18+ banks globally.

As part of this approach, Nuclei is also collaborating with Infosys Finacle, part of EdgeVerve Systems, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Infosys (NSE, BSE, NYSE: INFY), to leverage each other’s unique strengths to co-innovate and accelerate innovation for banks.

Nuclei will help banks seamlessly integrate merchant services in banking applications, creating a super app for the bank’s customers. Nuclei’s digital marketplace currently has more than 15+ categories across multiple services. The platform additionally enables banks to earn subscription fees and revenue from merchants. The modular solution guarantees faster go-to-market for offerings, and 10x amount of feature updates than the industry average through its innovative use of technologies.

Venkataramana Gosavi, Senior Vice President & Global Head of Sales & Alliances, Infosys Finacle, said, “Over the years, the Finacle FinTech Connect program has helped us create an ecosystem that thrives on collaboration and delivers the latest banking innovations for our clients.
