Summary

Bank of Ireland announced a strategic partnership with Stripe to accelerate payments innovation and integrate AI-driven financial technologies into core banking systems. The deal extends an existing relationship: Stripe already powers Davy’s reconciliation (€2B+ processed since 2021, saving 3,000 hours/year), and New Ireland Assurance will adopt a similar Bank Transfer solution. The bank has also launched Zippay, Quicker Payments, SEPA Instant, and AI tools like Benefits Finder.
