PORTSMOUTH, NEW HAMPSHIRE (23 March 2023) – Bottomline, a leading provider of financial technology that helps make business payments simple, smart and secure, today announced two industry award wins. First is today’s FinTech Breakthrough Award for Transaction Security Innovation, and the other the Stevie Award for the Best Use of Technology in Customer Service. These latest industry recognitions come on the heels of American Banker’s citation of Bottomline’s Chief Customer Officer Mandy Killam as one of The Most Influential Women in Payments in 2023.

The 7th annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program recognizes breakthrough companies and products in today’s global financial services and technology industry. In the category of Fraud Prevention & Transaction Security, Bottomline was crowned the Transaction Security Innovation winner for its Confirmation of Payee for Business solution. Now available for businesses[1], Confirmation of Payee is an industry-wide response to combat Authorized Push Payment (APP) Fraud in the UK and reduces the likelihood of fraudsters duping anyone into sending authorized payments into criminal accounts.

This month, winners of the 2023 Stevie awards were also announced, with Bottomline taking home a Bronze for the Best Use of Technology in Customer Service. The Stevie Awards for Sales and Customer Service are open to all organizations worldwide and recognize the achievements of sales, customer service, and call center professionals.
