BankBridge: Payment Rejection Investigation Service
A human-powered investigation service where payees submit rejected SEPA transfer details (sender, amount, date, recipient bank) and BankBridge's team contacts the recipient bank on their behalf using established banking inquiry channels, retrieves the rejection reason, and delivers a clear explanation plus remediation steps within 24-48 hours. The service operates as a licensed payment services intermediary in key EU jurisdictions, giving it standing to make formal inquiries that individual non-customers cannot.

Value Proposition
Eliminates days of back-and-forth with clients and banks by providing a single, authoritative explanation and actionable fix (incorrect IBAN, closed account, compliance hold, etc.) in under 48 hours. Banks respond faster to licensed intermediaries than to individual payees. Payees recover lost revenue weeks sooner and avoid relationship damage with clients.

SEPA transfer recipients cannot get bank explanations for rejected or delayed paymentsWhen a SEPA transfer fails or gets rejected, payees have no direct way to contact the recipient's bank to understand why the payment didn't go through. This leaves freelancers, contractors, and small business owners stuck without payment, unable to troubleshoot the issue, and forced to chase down their clients for answers. Banks provide no transparent communication channel for non-customers to inquire about failed transfers.
