The company unveiled 'Adyen for Platforms' and 'Issuing.'
'Issuing' will be included in a full suite of embedded financial products.
According to the press release, platforms and marketplaces will be able to create tailored financial experiences for their users, such as small business owners and individual sellers using these products. Additionally, with the suite of products, platforms will be able to unlock new revenue streams and increase user loyalty.
“By building our banking infrastructure, as a part of the single platform, from the ground up, we remove the limitations of legacy financial systems, enabling Adyen to deliver the power of a bank combined with the adaptability of a fintech . This unique approach means we can offer our platform customers unparalleled flexibility to meet the evolving needs of their user base without the barriers of regulatory complexity, lengthy product development, or sponsor bank restrictions,” Thom Ruiter, VP of Banking and Financial Products at Adyen, commented.
Through Adyen for Platforms, the company enabled platforms to embed payments into their offering and deliver a unified commerce experience across sales channels and geographies. Adyen launched Issuing to improve this experience by allowing platforms to offer their users virtual and physical cards for business transactions and to receive money directly.
“We see this step in building out our financial technology platform as a natural evolution of our business. We're building these products to help businesses achieve their ambitions faster. For platform businesses this means we empower them to become a one-stop shop for all their users' needs. We're uniquely positioned to help them here, combining our technology with our licensing framework,” Pieter van der Does, CEO and co-founder at Adyen, pointed out.
