Who holds your money? Nobody.

EU Regulation

In account-to-account payments the money never sits on a UrbanPay balance. It travels directly from the payer's bank to your account, with no intermediate balance to hold and no counterparty risk. If UrbanPay disappeared tomorrow, your money would be where it always was: in your bank. Payment initiation is provided by an entity authorized by the FCA and BaFin, passported across the EEA, and our infrastructure is ready for the transition to PSD3 when it comes into force.

SOC 2 Type II

Our partners hold SOC 2 Type II certification, proving continuous compliance with rigorous security, availability, and confidentiality controls.

ISO 20022

The global standard for electronic data interchange between financial institutions, enabling richer, structured, and transparent payment messages for cross-border transactions.
