Cobase and Rabobank announce partnership

Cobase and Rabobank today announce a new partnership to accelerate the adoption of embedded banking for corporate clients. By combining Rabobank’s Premium APIs with Cobase’s treasury and bank connectivity platform, both companies aim to make financial processes more seamless, integrated, and efficient.

Through this collaboration, Cobase now expands its offering by helping clients to connect via premium APIs to Rabobank’s embedded banking services. This allows clients to manage payments, account information, and liquidity within the systems they already use. Whereas these APIs are owned by the client they do not need to build APIs themselves. This helps reducing complexity and improving day-to-day financial operations.

The partnership is rooted in a shared ambition: bringing banking closer to where businesses operate. By embedding financial services directly into treasury and ERP environments, companies can act faster, gain better visibility, and focus more on growth rather than manual processes.

Frans van der Lugt of Rabobank: “We see embedded banking as a key step in making financial services more relevant and accessible for our clients. By partnering with Cobase, we bring our services directly into the workflows that corporates already rely on. This allows them to manage their banking more efficiently and with less friction.”

Jack Gielen, COO at Cobase: “Our clients expect flexibility and simplicity in how they connect to banks. Rabobank has established a mature set of Premium APIs and connecting these to our platform strengthens our ability to deliver that. Together, we are creating a more integrated experience that helps clients streamline operations and make better financial decisions.”

Rabobank and Cobase will also collaborate on bringing new API-driven propositions to market faster, including account information services and improved Payment status information.

With this step, Cobase and Rabobank position themselves at the forefront of embedded banking, setting a new standard for how corporates interact with financial services
