For your business

Paid or paying through Rapyd?

Platforms, marketplaces and payment companies around the world run on Rapyd. Three things to check:

  • Which Rapyd company serves you

    Rapyd's licences belong to different companies in different countries, and in many countries a local partner provides the service. Your agreement names the one that does.

  • A wallet, not a bank account

    Rapyd Wallet balances are e-money or ledger balances, not bank deposits.

  • Keep a second account

    Two apps on the same partner can fail together. A second account issued by a different institution keeps salaries and suppliers paid.
