Under the deal, FIS will provide and manage a fully integrated banking and payments platform for Atom from their data centres in the UK.
FIS, which already supporting eight of the world’s 10 largest banks across the globe, will offer the service to Atom through a totally outsourced delivery model.
Atom director of customer experience Stewart Bromley said: "Partnering with FIS allows us to plug our products and systems into a proven back-end solution with global credentials that streamlines our efforts so we can focus on growth without worrying about underlying technology.
"Atom Bank’s model, built on its partnership with FIS, is the next step forward from thin skim fintech apps that have been filling the void before the arrival of the truly digital banks."
