About us

We dare to design the future of payments. Ratepay is energy and diversity and: custom-made, state-of-the-art payment solutions. Established in 2009, we were a fintech before the word fintech even existed. Today, we are the number one white-label Buy Now Pay Later payments provider in Europe, handling over 2.5 million transactions per month, and we’re constantly growing.

We are where we are because we work together as one team. Because we have the freedom to execute ideas. And above everything: because we never stop improving. Here it is all about shared goals, not about the big ego. We are dedicated pros (more than 250 of them), not cons. We embrace being courageous, committed, decisive, warm-hearted, and having a will to win.

Our origins are in the heart of the payment scene, covering the whole value chain from integration support to the dunning process, with a core of AI-based risk management. With us, you can integrate direct debit, installments, and prepayment—popular payment methods in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (the Dutch like it too). Located in Berlin, Europe’s fintech metropolis, we are proud to work with major partners such as Eurowings, eBay, About You, and many more.
