Open (open.money)

aid: open-financial
name: Open (open.money)
description: Open is one of India's leading SMB neobanks, pioneering "connected banking" - a unified business finance platform
  that layers payments, automated reconciliation, accounting, payroll, expense management, vendor payouts, and GST-compliant
  invoicing on top of partner-bank current accounts (ICICI, SBI, Axis Bank, Yes Bank and 20+ others). Beyond its SMB application,
  Open also ships an embedded-finance / Banking-as-a-Service stack branded as Zwitch (zwitch.io), which exposes the same connected-banking
  primitives - virtual accounts, payouts via NEFT/IMPS/RTGS, UPI collect and intent flows, the Layer hosted payment gateway,
  beneficiary management, PAN/bank/VPA verification, webhooks, and split settlements - as REST APIs for fintechs and platforms
  that want to embed account-to-account payments and Indian payment rails into their own products. Open's broader portfolio
  also includes BankingStack (white-label connected banking for partner banks), the Open Capital lending product, and a suite
  of e-commerce plugins (WooCommerce, Magento, OpenCart, PrestaShop, CS-Cart, WHMCS) plus PHP, Java, Node.js, iOS, and Android
  SDKs for the Layer payment gateway.

    and outbound payouts can be debited from a controlled sub-ledger.
