April 16, 2025

Vienna, 16 April – Maksu, an online payment processing service provider, is pleased to announce a strategic collaboration with Creditsafe, the world’s most widely used provider of business reports and business intelligence.  

This partnership will deliver automated and streamlined merchant onboarding journeys for Maksu’s merchants, while significantly strengthening compliance and risk management. With this cooperation, Maksu will leverage Creditsafe’s real-time business intelligence to enhance both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance through: 

  • Automated Know Your Customer (KYC) processing during merchant onboarding 
  • Real-time screening across Sanctions, Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), Adverse Media, Enforcement, Insolvency, and more 
  • Access to over 400+ million global company reports for thorough due diligence 
  • Faster, data-driven risk decisioning, reducing time-consuming manual reviews 
  • Enhanced detection of high-risk entities and disqualified directors automatically 
  • Improved compliance with regulatory frameworks (e.g. Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF)) 
  • Stronger protection against fraud, reputational and regulatory risks. 

 

For Maksu’s merchants, this collaboration will bring real, tangible benefits from day one. By integrating Creditsafe’s intelligence into its onboarding process, Maksu delivers a faster, smoother, and more transparent experience. Merchants will benefit from robust compliance seamlessly managed in the background, and a simplified, digital-first onboarding process made possible by: 

  • 10x faster time to production and go-live on Maksu’s payment platform 
  • Faster onboarding experience with instant access to real-time data checks 
  • Minimized need for manual document uploads or lengthy background checks, reducing onboarding friction 
  • Greater transparency and predictability at every step of the onboarding process.

By integrating Creditsafe’s data capabilities, Maksu is accelerating time-to-market for its merchants while significantly reducing administrative overhead. The result is a faster, more predictable onboarding journey, free from complicated forms or long approval cycles. This enhanced experience empowers online businesses to focus on growth and operations, rather than navigating traditional onboarding delays and paperwork bottlenecks.
