The company processes more than USD 25 billion in transactions per year and serves over 70,000 businesses around the world, including DocuSign, Klarna, TripAdvisor, and Epson. The A2A payments provider accelerated its investment in Open Banking product development and launched Instant Bank Pay, a new way to collect one-off bank-to-bank payments using Open Banking.

In addition, PayPal and GoCardless have signed a strategic agreement which will see it become a direct debit partner for PayPal.
