Why Bankhawk

Specialising in paymentssince 2007.

HawkIQ is that specialist experience translated into a scalable intelligence platform - the same category of analysis, running continuously rather than arriving as another report.

Why Bankhawk created HawkIQ

From advisory to verification.

  1. 01

    Payments expertise since 2007

    Bankhawk has specialised in payment cost, billing and acceptance analysis since 2007.

  2. 02

    The same problem, repeatedly

    Large organisations had limited independent visibility into payment cost, billing and performance.

  3. 03

    Verification, productised

    HawkIQ puts that verification directly in merchants' hands, working from their data and applicable terms.

  4. 04

    Continuous commercial intelligence

    The analysis runs continuously rather than arriving as another point-in-time report.

  • Payments is the discipline, not a sideline

    Cost, billing and acceptance analysis is the core competence behind the product.

  • Independent by design

    Findings are formed from your data and applicable terms, not supplier-reported summaries.

  • Senior payments leadership

    A team drawn from merchant services, payments strategy and financial services advisory.

  • Built for enterprise scrutiny

    Evidence is traceable, so findings survive review by Finance and Procurement.
