Evolving regulations and growing volumes of financial data are placing increasing pressure on traditional banking and accounting processes. Staying compliant requires secure, reliable connectivity with your financial institutions.

SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity (SAP MBC) enables companies to establish direct, secure connections with multiple banks through a cloud-based SaaS solution. By providing a single channel between your ERP and banking partners, SAP MBC helps streamline financial processes, reduce manual work, support compliance, and improve visibility and control over cash flows.

Organizations running on SAP ECC (SAP ERP 6.0 or EHP 0 or higher)

SAP S/4HANA Cloud customers

SAP S/4HANA on-premise edition users

Enterprises with multiple banking relationships

Finance teams seeking greater automation and visibility

Direct bank connectivity

Connect your ERP system with banks through a digital channel that supports embedded EBICS (Electronic Banking Internet Communication Standard) and SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication).

Better control and visibility

Get automatic updates on payments and cash positions right in your ERP, helping finance teams work faster and smarter.

Better reliability with fewer errors

Replace manual tasks with automated processes to reduce mistakes in payments, collections, and related documents.

How SAP MBC Benefits Corporate Treasury

Centralized bank communication
Connect your SAP ERP system directly to multiple banks without relying on separate banking portals or middleware.
Improved cash visibility
Access real-time bank statements and transaction data to monitor cash positions across all accounts and entities.
Standardization and automation
Use industry-standard formats like SWIFT MT and ISO 20022 to automate payment processing and bank communication.
Enhanced security and compliance
Ensure secure connections and trackable approvals through digital signatures and audit-friendly workflows.
Faster onboarding of banks
Add or switch banks more easily, thanks to SAP's pre-configured bank directory and integration templates.

How SAP MBC Benefits Participating Banks

Streamlined integration with corporate clients
Receive standardized message formats and communicate with multiple SAP-based clients through one secure channel.
Lower support burden
Reduce manual troubleshooting and format-related issues with standardized connectivity.
Stronger relationships with SAP-based corporates
Be part of SAP’s trusted banking network, making it easier for companies to choose you as their banking partner.
Faster time to market
Onboard new SAP clients quickly without needing to build custom interfaces for each one.

SWIFT Connectivity

This integration is available for SWIFT customers and offers extra flexibility to support a multi-network structure of exchanging high volumes of messages and files.

3rd-party provider or non-member bank connectivity

In this case, the condition is that the customer is a member of EBICS, which uses an established digital signature and encryption procedures, allowing data file exchange independent of message standards and formats.

Host-to-host connectivity

A host-to-host connection is direct bank connectivity that allows sending messages from the corporate system to the corporate tenant and then to a bank back-end system. A contract with the bank for a host-to-host connection is the prerequisite for leveraging this type of integration.

Member bank connectivity

Banks can opt to join SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity as a member. In this case, they subscribe to the network to provide a more effortless and less-complicated integration for corporate customers utilizing SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity.

FAQ

What is SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity?

SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity (MBC) is a managed, cloud-based network that acts as a single, standardized gateway between a company's SAP system and all of its banking partners. Instead of building, securing, and maintaining separate point-to-point connections for each bank, a company makes one connection to the MBC network. SAP then manages the technical connectivity and message format conversions for each bank. This "connect once, reach many" model dramatically simplifies bank integration and reduces IT overhead.

How is using SAP MBC different from setting up our own host-to-host (H2H) connections?

With individual H2H connections, your IT team is responsible for managing the security certificates, monitoring the connection status, and handling any format changes for each bank separately. SAP MBC centralizes this entire process. SAP manages the network and the technical onboarding of new banks, so your team only has to manage one connection and one standard process, regardless of how many banks you add or which communication protocols they use.

How does our on-premise SAP S/4HANA system connect to the cloud-based MBC solution?

The connection is typically made via the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) using a standard integration package. A small connector component is configured in your on-premise landscape that securely routes financial messages (like payment files and bank statements) to and from the MBC cloud service. This allows your on-premise system to seamlessly and securely communicate with the cloud network.

How is SAP MBC licensed?

SAP MBC is a subscription-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution. The license fee is typically based on the volume of transactions (e.g., the number of payments and bank statements) processed through the network annually. It is not licensed per user or per individual bank connection, making it a scalable solution as your business grows.
