Salary benchmarks
Our take
Trustly is a fintech platform that makes accepting bank transfers for merchants a simple experience, just like taking card payments. Founded in 2008, the company has grown from just three people to operate offices across Europe and the Americas.
Trustly is a customer of banks, while its customers are merchants who are charged a transaction fee when they receive payments. Thousands of merchants use Trustly, including global players likes Facebook, AT&T, Alibaba, PayPal and TransferWise.
Whilst not a common payment method in certain countries (like the UK), people in many others prefer to pay via bank transfer - so there is a real need for what Trustly is offering. The company has made significant expansion progress, secured some highly advantageous partnerships and acquired SlimPay in 2024 - all suggesting a bright future ahead.
