# Temenos for banks: pricing, customers, review

Source: https://www.bankingnewsai.com/vendors/temenos
Last updated: Sep 24, 2026

*Sells banks core, digital, payments, wealth and financial-crime software under subscription, SaaS or term licences plus maintenance, and is embedding AI copilots and agents into those products rather than selling a separate AI layer.*

## What is Temenos, and which banks use it?

Temenos is a Swiss core-banking software vendor, founded 1993 and listed on SIX, with over 950 core banking clients. Its AI is embedded in its products: an FCM AI Agent for sanctions screening (generally available since May 2025), Copilot for Core, and May 2026 copilots, agents and a Conversational Studio. Commerce Bank runs Temenos core banking, but no bank on our list is named with a source as using Temenos AI. Pricing is not published; Temenos sells subscription, SaaS and term licences plus maintenance.

## How much does Temenos cost?

How it is charged: Subscription licences, SaaS and term licences, with maintenance billed separately; the 2025 annual report lists volume-based pricing aligned to banks' growth..

Temenos does not publish a price list.

- Temenos's 2025 annual report defines its revenue lines as subscription (licence and maintenance recognized separately), SaaS, term licence (on-premises, fixed term or perpetual) and maintenance, and lists 'Volume-based pricing aligned to banks' growth' in its strategy summary. No AI-module prices are disclosed. (Dec 31, 2025; [Temenos](https://www.temenos.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/2025-annual-report-4nu412zg99.pdf))
- Temenos says its Product Manager Copilot is offered as part of its retail accounts 'advanced and enterprise product offerings', i.e. bundled into higher product tiers rather than priced separately in the release. (May 20, 2025; [Temenos](https://www.temenos.com/press_release/temenos-launches-gen-ai-copilot-for-banks-to-deliver-better-products-faster/))

Pricing is not published; Temenos sells through sales-led licence, subscription and SaaS contracts with separate maintenance. Its filings describe the model and report ARR, but no list price or separate price for its AI copilots or agents.

## Which banks use Temenos?

None of the 100 largest US banks covered on this site is publicly named as a Temenos customer as of Sep 24, 2026.

## Flagship platform: Temenos Core Banking with embedded AI

Temenos's core banking platform (over 950 core banking clients) now carries Temenos Copilot for Core, a generative-AI assistant launched in 2025, and in May 2026 added AI Agents, Copilots and a Conversational Studio across Core, Digital and Financial Crime Mitigation. ([Temenos](https://www.temenos.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/2025-annual-report-4nu412zg99.pdf), [Temenos](https://www.temenos.com/press_release/temenos-launches-embedded-ai-capabilities-to-help-banks-move-faster/), [Temenos](https://www.temenos.com/innovation/ai/))

## Key points

- Temenos reports over 950 core banking clients and over 600 digital banking clients in more than 150 countries (2025 annual report); non-IFRS proforma 2025 revenue was $1,071.1 million and ARR reached $881 million at the end of Q2 2026, up 11% in constant currency.
- The Temenos FCM AI Agent, launched May 2025 and generally available, screens payments and customers against sanctions watchlists; Temenos says live deployments show false-positive rates below 2% and that a Tier 1 bank using it automates more than 20% of alerts (vendor-reported).
- Generative AI: Temenos launched Generative AI for core banking and financial crime in May 2024, the Product Manager Copilot (built on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service) in May 2025 with general availability scheduled for Q4 2025, and Copilot for Core in 2025.
- At its May 2026 Community Forum Temenos launched Conversational Studio for Digital, Copilot for Workbench, branch personas for Copilot for Core and an FCM AI Agent for Instant Payments.
- Temenos has sold patented Explainable AI (XAI) models since at least 2020, when it launched SaaS XAI models for SME and retail loan decisions.
- Reversals: Hindenburg Research published a short report in February 2024, causing the biggest drop in Temenos's shares in 15 years; a board special committee called the allegations 'incorrect and misleading'. CEO Jean-Pierre Brulard left in September 2025 after 16 months, and Chief Product and Technology Officer Barb Morgan, quoted in its 2025-2026 AI launches, stepped down in August 2026.
- Temenos's US footprint is growing: it opened an innovation hub in Orlando, Florida, and in July 2026 said an unnamed US regional bank selected Temenos SaaS on Microsoft Azure for one corporate banking line.

## Quotes

## Which rules apply to a bank using Temenos?

- [OCC](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/occ) — A core banking provider is among a bank's most critical third parties under OCC Bulletin 2023-17, and the AI copilots, XAI lending models and screening agent embedded in Temenos products are vendor models under OCC Bulletin 2026-13. See [OCC Bulletin 2023-17](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/occ-bulletin-2023-17), [OCC Bulletin 2026-13](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/occ-bulletin-2026-13).
- [Federal Reserve](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/federal-reserve) — A Fed-supervised bank using Temenos XAI credit models or the FCM AI Agent must validate and monitor them under SR 26-2 and manage Temenos, including its SaaS hosting on Azure, under SR 23-4. See [SR 26-2](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fed-sr-26-2), [SR 23-4](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fed-sr-23-4).
- [FinCEN](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/fincen) — Automating sanctions and AML alert triage with the FCM AI Agent is a BSA/AML model decision; the interagency 2021 statement on BSA/AML model risk management applies to how a bank validates and documents it. See [2021 BSA/AML Model Risk Management Statement](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/fincen-bsa-aml-model-risk-statement-2021).
- [CFPB](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/cfpb) — When a bank uses Temenos XAI models in consumer lending decisions, it must still give specific adverse-action reasons under ECOA/Regulation B, which is what the models' explanations are meant to support. See [ECOA / Regulation B adverse action (15 U.S.C. 1691(d); 12 CFR 1002.9)](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/cfpb-ecoa-regulation-b-adverse-action).
- [EU AI Act](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/eu-ai-act) — Temenos is Swiss and sells heavily in Europe; AI used for creditworthiness assessment of individuals is high-risk under the EU AI Act, which matters for banks deploying Temenos XAI lending models in the EU. See [Regulation (EU) 2024/1689](https://www.bankingnewsai.com/ai-regulation/documents/eu-ai-act-regulation-2024-1689).

## What the record suggests

### Several AI products are newly announced

The FCM AI Agent is stated as generally available; the May 2026 copilots, agents and Conversational Studio are launch announcements, and the Product Manager Copilot's general availability was only scheduled for Q4 2025 in the source.

### Results figures are Temenos's own

The below-2% false-positive rate, the 20%-plus alert automation at an unnamed Tier 1 bank and the XAI accuracy claims are vendor-reported, with no named customer or independent test in the sources.

### US AI references are absent

Commerce Bank runs Temenos core banking, loan origination and FedNow payments, but no source names Commerce or any other bank on our list as using Temenos AI; Temenos's AI design partners named publicly are European.

### Pricing is not published

Temenos discloses its licence, subscription, SaaS and maintenance model and cites volume-based pricing, and bundles at least one copilot into higher product tiers, but lists no AI prices.

### Leadership changed repeatedly

Temenos went from an interim CEO to Jean-Pierre Brulard in May 2024, back to an interim CEO in September 2025 and to Takis Spiliopoulos in December 2025, and replaced its product and technology chief in August 2026, after a 2024 short-seller report it rejected; buyers of multi-year roadmaps may weigh that record.

## FAQ

### How much does Temenos cost?

Temenos does not publish pricing. Its 2025 annual report describes subscription licences, SaaS and term licences with maintenance billed separately, and lists volume-based pricing aligned to banks' growth. The Product Manager Copilot is offered within Temenos's advanced and enterprise retail accounts offerings rather than with a stated price. Prices are negotiated per contract.

### What AI does Temenos offer banks?

Temenos embeds AI in its products: the FCM AI Agent for sanctions screening (generally available since May 2025, with an instant-payments version in 2026), Copilot for Core and a Product Manager Copilot built on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, Explainable AI lending models, and, from May 2026, Copilot for Workbench and Conversational Studio for Digital. Temenos says it embeds AI in the core rather than adding a separate layer.

### Which US banks use Temenos AI?

None of the 100 largest US banks tracked on this site is named with a source as using Temenos AI. Commerce Bank uses Temenos core banking, loan origination and payments, which are not AI products. Temenos said in July 2026 that an unnamed US regional bank chose Temenos SaaS for one corporate banking line, and its named AI design partners are European banks.

### Who owns Temenos?

Temenos AG is a public company listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange under TEMN and headquartered in Grand-Lancy, near Geneva. Takis Spiliopoulos has been CEO since December 2025. The company sold Multifonds to Montagu Private Equity in 2025 and bought wealth fintech additiv in July 2026.

### What happened with the Hindenburg report on Temenos?

In February 2024 short seller Hindenburg Research alleged accounting irregularities at Temenos, causing the biggest drop in its shares in 15 years. Temenos's board rejected the report, and in April 2024 a special committee assisted by outside lawyers and forensic accountants found the allegations 'incorrect and misleading'. Temenos said the episode lengthened sales cycles in early 2024.

### Temenos vs Fiserv: how do they differ for AI?

Both embed AI in core banking platforms. Temenos is Swiss, sells worldwide and names European design partners for its sanctions-screening agent and copilots. Fiserv is a US processor whose agentic-AI platform and US bank pilots are covered on its own page. Neither publishes AI pricing.
