“India is a strategic growth market, where high-volume enterprises like FlixBus, operating in the Travel and Mobility vertical, rely on flawless payment performance. Given that UPI facilitates over 80% of digital transactions, robust handling of this payment method is crucial for conversion. FlixBus launched in India in 2024, offering UPI through Adyen, recognizing the necessity of catering to local payment preferences.” - Flix

“Moving from 3rd party connections to Adyen’s own acquiring rails has improved payment conversion rates significantly”- Swarovski.

Navigate regulatory complexity with confidence

India is one of the world’s most dynamic regulatory environments - from strict data localization laws to evolving authentication and recurring-payment mandates. We embed regulatory compliance directly into our platform, combining a global licensing footprint, dedicated local teams in India, and our own in-country data centers to help you manage one-off and recurring payment flows while staying compliant - without slowing innovation or growth.
