Accept Payments

Grow conversion without increasing fraud

Payments shouldn’t force you to choose between revenue and risk. We use AI trained on global payment data to optimise the full payment journey, from checkout to authentication to risk. That means more good shoppers approved, fewer false declines, and fraud kept under control.

Optimise payments end-to-end

Many teams optimise payments in silos. Risk focuses on chargebacks, commercial teams focus on conversion, and finance focuses on cost. We connect checkout, authentication, routing, and risk in one system. So decisions are made with full context. Checkout behaviour, authentication signals, routing performance, and fraud intelligence all feed into the same system, enabling us to strike the right balance between conversion, fraud prevention, and cost optimisation. Performance that improves over time with no short-term trade-offs.

Recognised for connecting the full payment flow

IDC MarketScape named Adyen a Leader in retail, citing our single integrated platform that connects acceptance, processing, and settlement across all channels. When every part of the payment journey runs on the same system, optimisation becomes continuous.

Recognise good shoppers and let them move faster

Declines often happen because systems can’t confidently identify trusted customers. But we can.

Because we process payments globally on one connected system, we’ve seen most shoppers before. If we recognise someone as low risk, we simplify their checkout experience. If additional checks are required, we apply them intelligently.

This increases approval rates without lowering your standards.

Turn payment data into measurable impact

Data only creates value when it improves decisions.

Our Customer Area gives you a connected view of performance across channels, from authorisation rates to fraud trends to cost drivers. You can test strategies, measure their impact, and refine them.

You’re not just capturing data. You’re activating it.

Built to optimise every transaction globally

Our global acquiring connections automatically apply local intelligence, improving approval rates, reducing cross-border fees, and settling funds faster. Because acquiring, authentication, and risk signals stay aligned, optimisation improves over time.
