This milestone follows a year of strong momentum for Pay by Bank across Europe, as merchants increasingly prioritize fast, safe, and flexible payment options that align with evolving consumer payment preferences. For TrueLayer, it represents both a commercial and strategic leap forward – one that underscores how execution and innovation continue to set the company apart.” – the company said.
