🚀 Be part of a movement to change the way Europe pays

In today’s digital world, payments often still feel outdated: random delays and confusing rules make it harder than it should be to pay and get paid. The European Payments Initiative (EPI) is here to change that forever.

With Wero, our digital wallet, we make sending and receiving money simple, seamless, and secure across Europe. Already live in France, Belgium, and Germany, with more countries and omnichannel solutions coming soon, Wero is supported by 16 major banks and the two largest European acquirers.

Together, we’re building a proudly European payment system: instant, transparent, and designed for the greater good.

🔎 What’s in it for you

• Work on a pan‑European payment scheme, not a local or short‑lived solution

• Collaborate directly with leading banks, acquirers, and merchants across Europe

• Help scale Wero acceptance and shape how payments are adopted in real life

At EPI, we embrace a remote‑first culture, allowing you to work remotely from the country you are based in, with regular in‑person meetings to foster collaboration and connection.
