The company targets many industries, making it a perfect choice for any merchant looking to expand into the European market.

Similarly, Trustly strives to make iGaming as smooth as possible. Dealing with players is easy with account-to-account deposits and seamless access to winnings. Browser games get a whole lot more exciting when the stakes are higher and support from the game is bigger.

By adding Trustly to your alternative payments gateway, you have an additional real-time online payment acceptance method. Expand your horizons and convenience consumers with no risk and low risk of returns to come back to your business.

Limited credit card access and use should not limit your customers. In return, it should not limit your business either. This market segment may still be an unexplored avenue for your business. By adding Trustly to your payment options, the limits from your customers and you are lifted. 

Lastly, clients of banks covered by Trustly do not need to register but are automatically enrolled. By simply selecting the payment method during checkout, they also select their bank and approve the payment. It is the perfect seamless and local solution for a large chunk of Europe.
