LeoVegas will be the first out in the gaming industry to allow open banking transactions under PSD2 via the company’s proprietary technology platform. This will result in even more secure and faster payments for customers directly from their own bank accounts as well as lower transaction costs and reduced dependence on other payment service providers for LeoVegas.

“Secure, seamless and fast payments are incredibly important, and the fact that we now – through PSD2 (the Second European Payment Services Directive) – have the opportunity to directly integrate with many European banks, will provide a superior customer experience offered by security and speed,” comments Gustaf Hagman, LeoVegas’ Group CEO. “Conducting transactions via open banking is also considerably more cost-effective compared with traditional payment methods. There is a high level of activity in our product and technology development organisation, and it is exciting to see all of the innovations we are delivering to our customers. We are first out in the industry with this pioneering payment solution, which will change the entire payments industry in the years ahead.”

The UK is the first market in which LeoVegas has already launched payments via open banking. Customer data from the initial weeks show that 10% of all new customers already are choosing to initiate their payments via open banking. The solution will be successively rolled out across several of the company’s core markets in Europe.

open banking and psd2
PSD2 stands for the EU’s Second Payment Services Directive, which aims to develop the market for electronic payments and thereby create better conditions for secure and effective payments. Open banking is one aspect of PSD2 and entails that actors open up and share information with each other. The opportunities afforded by open banking include coupling together business models that together form a new ecosystem for payments, creating added value for customers.

CoinsPaid CEO Max Krupyshev on Bet It Drives: Crypto Secrets and Why “Zero Risk” Is the Fastest Way to Lose a Deal

coinspaid-ceo-max-krupyshev-on-bet-it-drives:-crypto-secrets-and-why-“zero-risk”-is-the-fastest-way-to-lose-a-deal

Max Krupyshev has been in crypto since 2013—long before it was “the usual.”

In the Bet It Drives podcast Season 4, Episode 3, the CoinsPaid and CryptoProcessing.com CEO joins host Yevhen Krazhan in Barcelona to explain why trust and controls decide who scales.

“Crypto was never anonymous—that was a misconception,” Max Krupyshev says in the podcast.

From there, he breaks down how the industry matured, why mass adoption is inevitable, and why the biggest risks today aren’t what most people think they are.

During the ride, Max digs into:

  • Is crypto still associated with money laundering?
  • Can crypto transactions still be completely anonymous?
  • The most common crypto fraud patterns in B2B
  • How to win big deals in business (and the fastest way to lose one)
  • What he dislikes in iGaming + crypto, and what the industry needs to fix next
  • The 8-Bitcoin story: what he spent it on, and why he doesn’t regret it
  • His most remarkable iGaming partnership, and why it mattered
  • Where crypto will be in 10 years, and what happens to cash along the way

Alongside the industry talk, Episode 3 also brings back Confess or Call, when Max gets pushed into a dramatic prank call: ringing his Head of Sales with an “urgent” request.

“This episode is practical,” said Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech and host of Bet It Drives. “Max explains the risks, how fraud happens in practice, and what operators should look for in a payment provider. If you handle payments in iGaming, this episode lays out what matters, and what doesn’t.”

Season 4 opened with a CEO episode with Cedomir Tomic (Founder of Alea) and Oleksandr Feshchenko (CEO of GR8 Tech), followed by Akhil Sarin on marketing and partnerships at Stake. Episode 3 is for operators, affiliates, and product teams who want to understand crypto beyond the obvious, and episode 4 features Marek Suchar breaking down esports betting.
