Nexi and cloud-based payment solutions in banking
Nexi is a PayTech company providing digital payment solutions in Europe. Its head of Group Strategy, Tommaso Jacopo Ulissi, told RBI last year that the company has seen its mobile payment transactions increase by 185% in 2022 compared to 2021.
In November 2020, Nexi took over Nets in an all-share deal which valued its Nordic rival at $9.2bn. The deal came weeks after Nexi signed a memorandum of understanding to buy payments provider SIA for $5.3bn in shares.
Suvi Ruoppa, country general director of Finland at Nets, said: “The new Npay terminal is a testament to the strong expertise that we have within the Finnish payment technology space, as one of the most digitised societies in the world.
