Sevenfold growth in payments processing drives payments hub expansion across EMEA, LATAM and APAC
Amsterdam, Netherlands - 25th February, 2026 - Mambu, the leading SaaS cloud banking platform, has today announced the expansion of its payments hub, following growing adoption by banks and fintechs operating across multiple payment schemes and jurisdictions.
For more than 15 years, Mambu has been a leading core banking provider, supporting financial institutions worldwide as they build, launch and scale modern financial offerings. Payments is the latest addition to Mambu’s expanding portfolio, with its Payments hub already supporting leading European and global financial institutions including Western Union, BCB Group, Flowe and Spendesk. Adoption has accelerated rapidly, with a sevenfold increase in payments processed year-on-year in 2025, underpinning Mambu’s expansion into additional markets in EMEA, Latin America and Asia Pacific.
Mambu Payments is a modern, API-first payments hub with native straight-through processing, orchestration, liquidity and reconciliation. With fully managed connectivity to local and global schemes and composable payment workflows, it enables financial institutions worldwide to launch and scale payment offerings faster, at lower cost with compliance assured at scale.
With Mambu Payments, financial institutions can:
Centralise payment processing and operations through a scalable, event-driven platform
Streamline payment processing, liquidity management and reconciliations across schemes and markets
Scale securely via an API-first cloud platform that grows with demand
Accelerate time-to-market when onboarding new banking partners and connecting to new schemes (up to 6x faster)
Reduce operational overhead by minimising manual tasks and file handling
Edouard Mandon, VP Payments at Mambu said: “Payments are becoming more global and more local, more interconnected and more fragmented, and now move in real-time. This complexity makes scaling payments across multiple markets challenging. To solve this, we have expanded our payments hub to give institutions access to local schemes while maintaining a consistent integration and operational experience. This continues our investment in connectivity at scale, which increasingly includes next-generation rails, to deliver payment solutions truly built for the future.”
Mambu continues to expand connectivity to major payment rails worldwide, enabling financial institutions to support both established and emerging schemes through a single platform. This expansion marks the next phase of Mambu’s international growth, as it continues to build global core banking and payments infrastructure that empowers fast-growing financial institutions to scale globally while remaining compliant and agile locally.
Leon Stevens, VP, EMEA says “For years, Mambu’s core banking platform has long been the engine behind hundreds of the world’s most innovative financial players. Payments are now a cornerstone of our strategy as we help institutions navigate the industry's growing complexity. We are poised to help modernise core infrastructure and accelerate innovation across the entire banking stack—from lending and deposits to payments and beyond."
