Zafin completed a customized pricing system for ZKB in 2008. The complexity of the integration, which resulted in allowing ZKB to perform relationship-based pricing for large customers in real time, was featured in an academic text, "Management von Integrationsprojekten: Konzeptionelle Grundlagen und Fallstudien aus fachlicher und IT-Sicht",[14] edited by Dr. Robert Winter of the University of St. Gallen.[15]

In October 2017, the company launched new fintech partner ecosystem to assist the banks with a one-stop origination platform.[16]
