Global Partnership

In November 2022, Worldline announced its partnership with Neonomics, an open banking disruptor, to extend its account-to-account payments and data aggregation coverage to the Nordics, including Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland.

In December, Worldline and Splitit announce the signing of a partnership agreement to deliver an integrated card-based installment payments solution to its extensive network of merchants and marketplaces.

Moreover, the payments company has announced a new service to help satisfy rapidly increasing customer demand in the travel sector for 'Buy Now Pay Later' (BNPL) payments. The company has partnered with leading travel payment provider Fly Now Pay Later and the joint offering is available through Worldline's existing TravelHub payment solution.

This week, Worldline has become a payments partner to online game distribution platform Voidu, facilitating the latter to pursue its fast growth.
