TrueLayer, the Pay by Bank network that counts more than 30 million users across Europe, has teamed up with SumUp, the global FinTech firm, to let SumUp App customers add money to their personal accounts instantly from their bank.
Under the partnership, SumUp personal account holders can move funds from their bank account into their SumUp balance within seconds, without entering any card details. The aim is to remove unnecessary steps and give users a quicker, smoother way to pay. The capability first launched in the UK earlier this year and has since expanded to customers in Ireland, Germany, France, Spain and Italy.
The relationship goes beyond payments. SumUp is also using TrueLayer’s data tools, which let users view the balances and transaction histories of their linked bank accounts together inside the SumUp App. Through TrueLayer’s account information services, SumUp can link to customers’ bank accounts in a secure and compliant manner, helping it to build more sophisticated features and financial products across its platform.
TrueLayer was set up in 2016 by Francesco Simoneschi and Luca Martinetti. The company combines real-time bank payments with financial and identity data to make online payments quicker, safer and more intelligent. Firms use its products to sign up new customers, collect payments and send payouts in seconds and at scale.
TrueLayer VP financial services and partnerships Mariko Beising said, “SumUp is a brilliant example of how Pay by Bank powers faster, simpler money movement for consumers. By integrating directly with TrueLayer, SumUp delivers a convenient account top up experience, while laying the foundations for broader Pay by Bank adoption across Europe.”
SumUp SVP global banking Felix Lamouroux said, “As SumUp expands its consumer offering, we are focused on making everyday financial interactions as simple and intuitive as possible. Working with TrueLayer helps us build a more connected experience across multiple banks in the SumUp App and gives us a strong foundation for developing further services. “
