#### *Originally [published on The Nilson Report ](https://nilsonreport.com/mention/118/modo-payments/)*

[ModoPayments](http://modopayments.com) handles distributed transaction processing on behalf of clients needing interoperability for payment and loyalty systems. The company’s cloud-based (AWS) platform, called Coin, is a utility that solves connectivity problems between different systems that need to work together. Modo offers a digital payment hub that enables connections to many processors, acquirers, and alternative payment networks with one technical integration. Modo says its overall exception item rate is 0.05% and trending lower.

Mastercard used Modo last year in an internet of things (IoT) pilot as a way to test how to link its business-to-consumer system to facilitate payments initiated by connected devices.

[Etihad Airways recently hired Modo](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/modo-partners-with-etihad-airways-to-co-create-loyalty-solution-as-part-of-the-fintech-abu-dhabi-innovation-challenge-300699577.html) to connect its loyalty system to its main reservation system. Modo enables loyalty points or a combination of points and new spending to be used to purchase a ticket using a virtual card. Etihad’s loyalty and reservation systems are operated by different third-party providers. They now communicate without any changes required by those providers.

FIS Global uses Modo to support a stand-alone mobile app that lets users convert loyalty cards for in-store redemptions. And Modo is working on other projects with FIS that involve interoperability in support of loyalty programs at FIS financial institution clients.

[Klarna uses Modo](http://www.paymenteye.com/2018/09/20/inside-the-klarnamodo-deal-how-to-deliver-fast-and-flexible-payments/) to quickly connect to online merchants worldwide that want to integrate the company’s financing options.

Modo has received $16.5 million over five funding rounds, including $5.2 million in [private equity from Deutsche Bank](https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2018-08-23/deutsche-bank-buys-stake-in-modo-to-handle-peer-to-peer-payments) in August. The company is using its most recent funding round to expand existing system capabilities to approach a broader set of potential clients.

Competitors to Modo include companies that sell software directly to merchants such as ACI Worldwide, as well as payment service providers such as Adyen.
