Backbase focuses on the digital engagement layer — modern web and mobile banking journeys that sit on top of a core you already run. SecurePaymentz is a banking platform you design online first — pick the modules, brand it, connect the rails, and our engineers build, host and run it with you. Here is an honest side-by-side.
Design it online · we build, host and run it

We would rather you pick right than pick us. Consider Backbase if you already operate a core banking system and the gap you need to close is the customer-facing digital experience.
Choose SecurePaymentz if you want to see and shape the platform before you spend, you need banks, merchant APIs and card programs connected for you, and you would rather have a team that builds, hosts and keeps it running than hire one. You describe the platform, we deliver it.
No. Backbase is an independent product of its owner and all trademarks belong to them. This page is our own comparison, based on publicly available information, to help you evaluate options.
Yes. We regularly take over from an existing platform: we map accounts, balances, users and history, run both systems in parallel, then cut over.
Pricing depends on the modules, rails and compliance scope you need. Design your platform online, request a quote, and our team prices the setup and monthly fee for you.
Timelines depend on your licences and banking partners. Once rails are agreed, a branded platform with accounts, transfers and cards typically moves in weeks, not quarters.
Do not take our word for it — open the product, walk the modules and see the real screens before you talk to anyone.
Accounts, treasury, cards and settings — the actual interface your customers would use.
