Signature Bank is the first bank to enable its commercial clients to access the Signet blockchain-based, real-time payments platform through the Fireblocks Network.

Recently, Signature Bank enhanced the power and capabilities of Signet, a tokenized representation of USD to facilitate instant settlement, with the addition of Application Program Interface (API). The new Signet APIs allow the Bank’s clients and developers to directly integrate their proprietary systems with the Signet platform to access full transactional capabilities. Signet APIs continue to enhance the real-time, 24/7/365 benefits and transactional security of the Signet platform. The introduction of Signet APIs increases Signature Bank’s clients’ abilities to immediately settle their transactions securely and enhances their capabilities when transacting with Signet.

Now, with Signet APIs, the Bank’s clients can immediately settle their transactions securely and enhance their capabilities when transacting with Signet.
