Payaut B.V. is a Dutch financial technology company that functions as a licensed Payment Institution. Founded by former employees of Adyen and Booking.com, the company's mission is to simplify payments for the platform economy. Its service enables online marketplaces to easily onboard sellers, split payments, and remain compliant with financial regulations like PSD2, without needing to become a regulated payment institution themselves. Payaut handles the entire payment process, including know-your-customer (KYC) checks, fund distribution, and reconciliation. In 2022, Payaut was acquired by the prominent European payment service provider, Mollie, to enhance Mollie's offerings for marketplace and platform businesses.
