Europe’s payments ecosystem is evolving quickly, and we’re watching the Digital Euro discussion closely. At Adyen, our focus stays the same: abstract away complexity so merchants can accept payments in any form, anywhere their customers are. We’re encouraged to see the EU looking at ways to streamline payments and strengthen infrastructure. Explore our perspective on the evolving landscape in the report below ⬇️

This year's Black Friday/Cyber Monday (BFCM) was another record-breaker. We  processed a total volume of $43 billion across the weekend (up 27% vs. last year), with peak demand hitting 199,000 transactions per minute, all while maintaining 99.9999+% uptime. Beyond the surge, this performance data revealed critical shifts in international consumer behavior. For example, transaction volume uplift compared to a typical Friday was highest in markets like Denmark (6.1x) and Spain (4.47x), demonstrating that global spending is rapidly evolving. How is this shift impacting international commerce? Our VP of Retail, Holly Worst, spoke with Modern Retail to discuss our findings and analyze what an outsized Cyber Week reveals about the European consumer. - Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/ebMWJrtR - Explore all our BFCM 2025 data here: https://lnkd.in/dfNU3eVe

This week, Adyen joined the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF). As AI agents move from experimentation into real commerce, the underlying infrastructure matters more than ever. For merchants, agent-initiated transactions need to be reliable, interoperable, and able to integrate into existing operations without creating new complexity. Our decision to join reflects what we hear directly from merchants: excitement about the potential of agentic commerce, alongside the need for clarity, control, and trusted infrastructure as this new channel develops. In this blog, our CTO Tom Adams shares why we joined the Agentic AI Foundation and how open, neutral governance can help the ecosystem test, learn, and evolve without forcing early assumptions.

Last week was the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, and we’re proud to share that we have been named a Zero Project 2026 Award Winner. The Zero Project is a global, research-driven initiative advancing the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). This award recognizes our work in making in-person payments more accessible for visually impaired shoppers through our Accessibility Audio Solution on terminals. At Adyen, we believe accessibility is a journey, not a checkbox. We’re committed to continuously improving so that payments are seamless, secure, and inclusive for everyone.
