NordVPN announced a new partnership with Adyen, the payments platform used by many of the world’s leading companies. The decision comes down to Adyen’s self-hosted payment processing solution and region-specific local payments.

Adyen is an international payments platform, which provides modern end-to-end infrastructure connecting directly to Visa, Mastercard, and other payment methods preferred by consumers around the world.

The Amsterdam-based company, which is an EU-chartered bank as well, provides the payment technology behind digital-first giants such as Spotify, Etsy, Uber, Booking.com, AirBnB, Facebook, Netflix, and eBay. The latter switched from PayPal in 2018, making Adyen its main payment processing partner.

NordVPN will start introducing localized Adyen payment options in February 2019. It is expected that by the end of 2019 it will be the major regional payment option. Simultaneously, NordVPN is ceasing the PayPal support.

At the moment, NordVPN’s payment options include all major credit card providers (Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover), crypto currencies (Ripple, Ethereum and BitCoin), and many regionally localized payment solutions (AliPay, Yandex, iDeal, Sofort, UnionPay, Boleto and others).
