SPAA includes rules and agreements for account information services and value-added payment initiation services (‘premium’ services) . These premium services can be offered by so-called Account Servicing Payment Service Providers (ASPSPs, usually banks) to Third Party Providers (TPPs, regulated payment service providers in general).

The SPAA settlement system now also provides objective and transparent business terms for a fee model .
