No evidence of notability, most sources I found were trivial and did not meet
WP:ORGDEPTH. Article seems promotional overall.

Keep. "Promotional," per the nomination? Quite the reverse. The IPSO was an obscure part of the plumbing of the Irish banking system before post-Euro integration of Irish payments made it less necessary. The four big banks that controlled it preferred to keep the IPSO invisible to ordinary users. Most of us prefer not to think about how payments and cash withdrawals make their way from the point of transaction back to our bank accounts, but this plumbing is still vital. The article needs proper sourcing, which I will now try to do.

Comment - I've now rewritten the article almost in full.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Of note is the article was significantly rewritten and reworked after the nomination for deletion, which also included the addition of seven new sources. An analysis from other users regarding those sources would benefit this discussion at this time.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 15:34, 2 February 2021 (UTC)reply
Keep. Plenty of valid sources. Could also rename/create new/then merge into/link to a "Banking in Ireland" article, but I think there's enough to justify its own article, maybe expand it a bit more.--
