With offices around the world, Adyen works with the likes of Meta, Uber, H&M, eBay, and Microsoft.

Why Work With Us

At Adyen, everything we do is engineered for ambition. We started with payments, at a time when providers offered services based on a patchwork of systems built on outdated infrastructure.
