Paymill is the first provider to have brought this simple and user-friendly technical solution to Europe and is now extending its lead with PAY.ON technology. Besides newly-developed workflows for simpler, direct integration of merchants, PAY.ON makes additional payment methods, such as direct debit and 3D Secure available to Paymill merchants.

Consistent implementation of this fundamental principle currently makes Paymill a very popular payment service provider in the European area. We are really excited that collaboration with Paymill has given us this opportunity to establish a foothold with a new technology and a new payment service offering for merchants. For PAY.ON, this also means logging into an interesting, self-determined merchant community."
