About Adyen

Adyen is a Dutch payments company that processes online, mobile and in-person payments for large businesses on a single platform. Instead of stitching together separate gateways and acquirers per country, merchants connect once and accept cards, digital wallets, buy now pay later and many local payment methods worldwide, with in-store terminals sharing the same data. It also offers risk management, authentication, payouts, card issuing and embedded finance for platforms and marketplaces. Pricing is per transaction: a small fixed processing fee plus a payment-method fee, with interchange++ pricing for cards and no setup or monthly fees. Adyen holds banking licences in the US, UK and EU. It is built for enterprises and fast-growing companies with significant volume, and onboarding is sales-led, so very small businesses usually find Stripe or Square easier to start with.

Best for: Large and international businesses that want online and in-store payments on one platform.
