Adyen also made significant traction in Southeast Asia, with the expansion of its Singapore office and the signing of customers like RedMart, Grab and Althea.

 

"The opportunity for disruption and innovation in global payments is like no other market in the world today," said Pieter van der Does, co-founder and CEO of Adyen.
