Mollie, one of Europe’s fastest-growing financial service providers, has announced its official expansion into the Italian market, marking a significant milestone in its mission to streamline payments and money management for businesses across Europe.
This strategic entry aims to provide Italian companies with access to a single platform designed to simplify payment processing, streamline reporting, and enhance fraud prevention.
As Europe’s fourth-largest eCommerce market, Italy presents vast potential for growth, particularly as legacy payment providers have not fully addressed local needs. By establishing an engineering hub in Milan, Mollie will enhance its local capabilities, expanding the team with commercial talent to support the platform’s growth in Italy and deliver a customer-centric experience tailored to Italian business needs.
Mollie’s localised approach includes integrating popular Italian payment methods such as Satispay and Bancomat Pay. These additions enable Mollie to serve new Italian businesses while assisting existing clients with cross-border ambitions through a comprehensive range of payment solutions. Mollie also prioritises a streamlined onboarding process, ensuring that local businesses experience fast, efficient setup with best-in-class support available in Italian.
Italian eCommerce businesses can also benefit from Mollie’s existing plug-ins for platforms like Shopify, Shopware, Prestashop, Magento, and WooCommerce, making integration straightforward. Mollie’s customer-first approach has enabled it to serve over 250,000 businesses across Europe, providing seamless payments and money management solutions with an intuitive, accessible interface.
Malvina Podesta, co-founder and general manager of Quanticlo, said, “We recently made the switch to Mollie, and the difference has been remarkable! The onboarding process was a breeze—what used to take us days with our previous provider was completed in just minutes online. The intuitive dashboard is well-structured, making it easy for our team to navigate and manage our payments efficiently.
“What we love most is the easy access to detailed information on transactions, which has significantly improved our ability to serve our customers. With Mollie, we feel empowered and equipped to handle our payment processes seamlessly. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to partner with Mollie!”
Commenting on the Italian launch, Koen Köppen, CEO of Mollie, said, “We are incredibly excited to bring the Mollie experience to even more businesses across Europe, especially as we expand into a key European market: Italy!
“This launch enables us to serve new customers in a new market while also supporting our existing customers with their cross-border plans in Italy, thanks to the hyperlocal payment methods we’ve introduced. As we continue to expand into new markets, our mission remains clear: to make money management effortless for every business in Europe. Expanding into Italy represents a key step toward achieving that goal.”
