The museum’s transition to cashless will enable customers to purchase tickets via QR codes, as well as pay with digital wallets such as Apple Pay. Adyen already process online payments for Rijksmuseum, helping to protect against fraudulent transactions and reduce the number of chargebacks with the implementation of Adyen’s risk tool, Revenue Protect.
Hendrikje Crebolder, Director Media & Development at the Rijksmuseum, about the partnership: “Adyen is a renowned payment platform and I am grateful for the knowledge and expertise they bring in enabling the museum to become completely cashless. During the current pandemic, this is all the more relevant.”
“There are multiple advantages to these innovations”, says Pieter van der Does, co-founder and CEO of Adyen. “Ticket queues will be shorter, visitors can complete their purchases at point of sale terminals, and pay using their preferred payment methods, all reducing the necessity of physical proximity to museum staff and visitors. This will streamline the entry of the large number of foreign visitors the Rijksmuseum can hopefully welcome again soon."
