The Power of Payment Method Personalisation: BR-DGE & TrueLayer at MPE 2025

How can merchants deliver smarter, more flexible checkout experiences in today’s evolving payments landscape? Our VP of Commercial, Tom Voaden, joined TrueLayer's Mariko Beising at MPE Berlin 2025 to discuss how merchants can move beyond cards and harness the power of pay-by-bank and open banking, unlocking new value while adapting to consumer behaviour, regional differences, and market maturity.
The FF News interview dives into the growing potential of pay-by-bank and open banking solutions, and why they’re fast becoming critical to a well-rounded payments strategy. Tom and Mariko explore how merchants can use these technologies to enhance checkout experiences, improve conversion, and adapt to local market nuances - all without overwhelming their internal teams.
BR-DGE plays a key role in making this evolution accessible. As a payment orchestration platform, we enable merchants to integrate open banking and pay-by-bank methods like TrueLayer quickly and flexibly through a single API. By sitting between the merchant and their providers, BR-DGE removes the complexity of adding new payment options, making it easier for businesses to scale smarter payment solutions in line with customer expectations.
