Payments made easy: Skrill expands with Trustly in the Czech Republic

In today’s digital‑first world, consumers expect fast, seamless, and personalized payment experiences that integrate effortlessly into their daily lives. Research shows that 43% of Europeans have abandoned an online shopping cart simply because their preferred payment method was not available.

Recognizing this shift, Skrill is expanding its offering in the Czech Republic through the integration of Trustly, a leading European open banking solution. This enhancement enables Czech users to top up their Skrill wallets easily and securely directly from their bank accounts.

Why open banking matters

Open banking is transforming the way merchants process payments and engage with customers. It allows consumers to make secure, direct bank transfers without relying on traditional card networks, helping merchants reduce transaction costs. These payments are authenticated through bank login, providing multi‑factor security that helps prevent fraud and chargebacks.

Skrill acknowledges the importance of this evolution. As a global wallet, it adapts to merchants’ and consumers’ preferences by integrating trusted solutions such as Trustly, ensuring that Czech users benefit from a seamless experience that feels both local and dependable.

The process is straightforward: users select Trustly at checkout, log in to their bank, and confirm the transfer. Funds appear in the Skrill wallet within seconds, ready for shopping, gaming, or sending money.
