Bottomline, described as a top-three Swift service provider handling over $16 trillion in payments annually, has launched Global Pay Connect, an onchain payment connectivity platform serving 600+ banks. Chainlink supplies the interoperability layer: CCIP links Bottomline's payments infrastructure to blockchain networks via a single, network-agnostic integration, while CRE coordinates payment workflows across onchain and offchain systems. Per the announcement, financial institutions can access onchain payment rails through the Swift network and messaging standards they already use, avoiding replatforming or building bespoke integrations for each network.
