Easy to Join

It’s easy to join. Fill out a short Questionnaire providing only the information you wish - you can change it later.

This EcoSystem is intended to assist in communication between Clear Purchase and different interest groups to discuss the most pressing challenges & opportunities.

This will vary dependent on industry, cultural norms, and even by country.

It will eventually develop into an Association.

About Your Organization

We are interested in your industry, and whether your Organization is interested in becoming a Clear Purchase Network Member.

We are also interested in those Clear Purchase features/services that are of most interest.

We also ask that you take the time to select all countries where your Organization operates. This will be used to build the EcoSystem Map below, which shows the totals for each country while keeping individual Organizations confidential.

Country Interest

There is one Pin for each country in the map below that have registered EcoSystem Organizations.

Pin colors indicate the level of progress some Organizations have taken in becoming Network Members in that country.

We will approach those countries first that show the most interest.

Network Members

Select Roles

All Network Members choose the Roles they wish to play in the Network.

The Role relates to a specific Role in the processing of a specific Transaction, or set of Transactions.

For example, an Issuer is the Financial Institution that manages an account for an Account Holder, in any Transaction where the Account Holder requests funds be sent from their account to a destination.

The Organization agrees to a set of technical, financial and legal obligations, as well relevant benefits.

Certification
The Network Member must complete a Certification process for selected Roles. Once passed, the Network Member is connected to the Clear Purchase production system.

At this point the Organization officially becomes a Network Member.

Standard Agreements

For each Role, there are Standard Terms and Condition Agreements applicable to all Network Members.

Every Network Member can feel comfortable knowing they will all follow the same rules, receive the same benefits, are charged the same fees, and are treated the same.

Clear Purchase is a Common Platform on which all get to play equally.

Mutually Benefitial
The more Organizations that connect, the greater the benefit for all. Organizations that otherwise see themselves as competitors would both benefit by both being connected.

Transparency
These Standard Agreements will be made public for all to see.

Transparency is the foundation of trust, and the reason for "Clear" in our company name.
