Currently, equensWorldline is said to be the largest instant payments processor in the Eurozone, by virtue of the Dutch launch.
The firm is presently said to manage millions of instant payment transactions on a weekly basis.
In November 2018, equensWorldline rolled out its TIPS Gateway service.
The service supports instant payments through a single interface.
According to Worldline, various tier 1, tier 2 and tier 3 banks across the globe are expected to go live with this service soon.
Earlier this year, equensWorldline launched a new service to enable interoperability of mobile P2P payments across Europe.
