Choosing a kit to suit your needs
Our Alliance Kits are all-in-one packages providing a simplified and cost-effective way of buying a range of products in one go. Suitable for customers sending or receiving fewer than 1,000 messages per day, Kits contain all the components you need to start using Swift.
All of our Kits contain everything you need to access Swift. This includes subscription to the FIN messaging service and the ability to subscribe to most InterAct, FileAct and Swift Web Access based services without the need for additional software.
All Kits include your BIC annual registration and access to online reference data and documentation. A software license allows you to set up three systems, one of which holds your production environment. Also included in the Kit, your first two PKI certificates enable you to make provision for your testing or disaster recovery system.
Your choice of Alliance Kit will depend on your answers to three simple questions:
- Do you want to use a private or shared infrastructure?
- Do you need back office integration, or is manual messaging entry sufficient?
- Do you want to use a messaging interface from Swift or from a third party interface vendor?
Based on your needs, choose from the following options:
