London-based Ryft raises €6.6 million in a Series A round to develop technology for acquiring banks to compete with payment providers like Stripe Connect and Adyen.
The funding round was led by EdenBase with participation from GPOS Investments, British Business Bank, Pembroke VCT, Sidebyside, and Ingenii VC.
Ryft offers technology that enables acquiring banks to overcome challenges faced in the evolving payments industry and is actively seeking strategic partnerships.
Over 1,500 businesses have already implemented Ryft, reporting significant cost savings compared to Stripe, and the company aims to transform the acquiring ecosystem.
