Beginning with the Netherlands and France, open banking top-ups will be launched for Pleo users across Europe in the coming months.

According to Yapily, Pleo is planning to use a wider range of the open banking payments solutions.

Pleo chief product officer Olov Eriksson said: “This partnership with Yapily is all about maximising the benefits of open banking technology to enable frictionless user journeys.

“Manual processes, settlement periods, and bottlenecks in cash flow are all avoidable obstacles. We want to enable our users to focus on what really matters: growing their business and empowering their people.”

Yapily founder and CEO Stefano Vaccino said: “Current market conditions mean that businesses in the UK and across Europe are looking for ways to better manage costs and increase cash flow now more than ever.

“We’re proud to be lifting some of the burden for them in the way we know how. I’m very much looking forward to continuing to work with the team at Pleo and helping them meet the evolving needs of their customers as they continue to expand across Europe.” In a span of six months, Yapily’s solution is said to have helped Pleo process nearly £10m in open banking payments.
