TrueLayer expands its open banking platform to Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland and Portugal
TrueLayer, Europe’s leading open banking platform, announced further expansion of its connectivity, adding Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland and Portugal, for open banking data (AIS) and payments (PIS). It has also increased connectivity in existing markets including the Netherlands and Spain, and as a result, added hundreds of new banks across a total of 16 European markets.
TrueLayer offers over 95%+ coverage of the banked population in major European countries, with more than half of all open banking traffic in the UK, Ireland and Spain already being processed across its platform.
Through the addition of Portugal, TrueLayer now provides merchants in any industry access to aggregated and enriched financial data, and account to account payments from Portugal’s 20 largest financial institutions, with a reach of more than nine million bank customers, equating to 99% total market coverage.
In Austria, data and payments connectivity has been added for 29 banks including Raiffeisenbank, BAWAG and Bank Austria. Belgium sees 18 banks available for data and payments including BNP Paribas Fortis, KBC and Argenta, while Denmark adds 50 new banks, including Nykredit, Jyske Bank and Spar Nord. In Finland five banks have been added for data connectivity and payments, including Danske, OP Bank, and S-Pankki.
To support clients in delivering efficient and effective services across Europe, TrueLayer focuses on connectivity to banks covering the majority of the population and only through PSD2-compliant APIs.
This includes investing time to rigorously test APIs to root out errors and edge cases that otherwise cause data connection errors or payment failures that could affect the uptake and customer satisfaction of our client’s services. For example, banks set different transaction limits that for trading and investing platforms, or ecommerce providers, could lead to a higher rate of rejected payments.
“Working with our clients expanding across Europe, we know how important high quality connectivity is to harness the full potential of open banking. We pride ourselves on making connections available only when we believe they are fit for purpose, rather than focussing on vanity metrics that ultimately don’t deliver the best results for our clients or their customers,” commented Joe Morley, CEO Europe at TrueLayer. “That focus on quality is one of the reasons that open banking payments through TrueLayer convert on average 22% higher than they do through other providers in the UK. We’re continuing that model as we extend connectivity across Europe with the addition of hundreds of banks across these new markets. The result is a superior developer experience for our clients and a more reliable service for their customers.”

BGC: Licensed Gambling Advertising Continues to Decline in the UK
Gambling advertising spend by licensed operators in the UK is continuing to decline, according to new independent analysis commissioned by the Betting and Gaming Council (BGC). The findings come as the industry warns that unregulated online advertising by illegal operators is becoming the real risk to consumers.
The research, conducted by Alvarez & Marsal (A&M), set out in the Gambling Advertising and Sponsorship Report 2025, shows that gambling advertising accounted for 2.7% of total UK advertising spend in 2024, down from 3% the previous year.
The report also found that overall gambling advertising spend by licensed operators has been declining steadily since 2021, falling by 1.7% year-on-year, driven largely by a £30 million reduction in television advertising.
At the same time, a substantial share of advertising is dedicated to player protection. Around 20% of all gambling advertising is now focused on safer gambling messaging, reinforcing awareness of tools and support.
This focus is delivering tangible results. During the most recent Safer Gambling Week, engagement increased significantly, with 14% more people setting deposit limits and 22% more safer gambling tools in place.
Advertising compliance remains extremely high, with Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) rulings relating to fewer than 0.02% of gambling adverts, highlighting the strength of the UK’s regulatory framework.
Regulated gambling advertising supports 9900 jobs across the advertising, media and creative supply chain, contributes c.£500 million in Gross Value Added (GVA), and underpins 1400 full-time marketing roles. It also plays an important role in supporting free-to-air sport, lower-league and grassroots sport, as well as wider media revenues outside subscription-based models.
Grainne Hurst, CEO of the Betting and Gaming Council, said: “This independent analysis shows that gambling advertising by licensed operators is continuing to fall, with spend increasingly concentrated on safer gambling messaging and consumer protections. Our members operate within some of the strictest advertising rules of any industry and continue to raise standards across the sector.
“By contrast, illegal operators are advertising aggressively online with no safeguards, no age checks and no consumer protections, posing a huge risk to consumers. Any serious approach to advertising must be led by evidence and focused on tackling the harmful black market.”
Adam Rivers, Managing Director at Alvarez & Marsal, added: “We are pleased to have worked with the BGC on this report, which offers an insight into the state of the gambling advertising and sponsorship sector in the UK, based on actual advertising expenditure data from licensed operators.”
The report also highlights the growing scale of illegal gambling advertising. Illegal operators are increasingly using unregulated digital channels, including influencers, search engines and AI-generated content, to target consumers. Many explicitly advertise that they are “not on GAMSTOP”, while others impersonate trusted charities and institutions to deceive the public.
While licensed advertising continues to decline, separate industry analysis estimates that black market sites are spending between £500 million and £700 million on advertising their illegal sites.
