Adyen

Adyen is a Dutch payment technology company headquartered in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Founded in 2006, Adyen has built a single, unified platform that provides end-to-end payment processing — from acquiring to processing to settlement — without relying on third-party intermediaries. The company serves many of the world's largest digital-first brands and has been expanding into the iGaming vertical.

Adyen supports 250+ payment methods and processes transactions in 150+ currencies across a global acquiring network. Its platform is distinguished by its end-to-end architecture: rather than aggregating third-party PSPs, Adyen builds its own acquiring relationships and processing infrastructure, giving merchants direct control over the payment chain.

The company is publicly traded on Euronext Amsterdam (ADYEN) and holds acquiring licences across Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. While Adyen's gaming platform connectors are more limited than some iGaming-native PSPs, its enterprise-grade infrastructure and AI fraud detection make it attractive to large operators seeking a unified payment platform.

Unified End-to-End Platform

Unlike aggregator-based PSPs, Adyen owns the full payment chain — acquiring, processing, and settlement — in a single platform. This architecture eliminates intermediary fees, reduces latency, and gives merchants direct visibility into the entire transaction lifecycle.

Global Acquiring Network

Adyen holds direct acquiring licences across Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America, enabling local currency processing in major markets. The platform supports 250+ payment methods and 150+ currencies.

AI Fraud Detection

Adyen's RevenueProtect fraud engine uses machine learning trained on the company's global transaction data to score risk in real time. The system is designed to minimise false positives while catching sophisticated fraud patterns — a critical capability for high-risk verticals like iGaming.

Advanced Payment Orchestration

The platform includes intelligent routing, cascading logic, and dynamic currency conversion. While Adyen's native iGaming platform connectors are limited compared to iGaming-native PSPs, its API-first architecture supports custom integrations for operators with development resources.
