Adyen announced that is now offering open banking on its single platform. This pay-by-bank solution was realized in partnership with Tink, an open banking platform that enables financial institutions, fintechs and startups to build financial products and services. „Adyen’s open banking integration has launched first in the UK, with plans to expand to multiple European markets in 2023,” according to the press release.
“Today’s consumers don’t just appreciate having a variety of payment options – they expect it,” said Edgar Verschuur, Adyen’s Head of Global Acquiring. “With our open banking solution, shoppers can pay directly from their own trusted banking environment. We innovate quickly to meet consumer needs by providing a breadth of convenient, fast and secure payment options. Partnering with Tink for open banking is the latest way we have evolved our technology to deliver on this goal.”
Adyen’s open banking solution offers a range of benefits for customers and their consumers alike. By facilitating the connection between banks and businesses, the technology enables consumers to pay directly from their preferred banking environment.
„In addition to bringing greater choice and convenience to the payment stage, account-to-account bank transfers provide shoppers with more transparency into their account balance. All of these pay-by-bank advantages are made possible through Adyen’s one-click, single integration and platform,” the company explains.
Tom Pope, Head of Payments and Platforms at Tink added: “We have long admired Adyen as a payments leader, and are proud to be working together to help businesses access next-generation payments. With the scale of Adyen’s reach, our partnership will rapidly accelerate the global adoption of open banking powered payments.”
Adyen’s open banking functionality is designed to be dynamic. It has been developed as a white-label solution so that only the business’ name is shown in consumer bank statements. When a shopper chooses to pay by bank, they will automatically be presented with their bank’s authentication method. Adyen’s open banking option is available across all major operating systems, including API, web, iOS and Android devices.
