Our Story

Brite was born in Stockholm in 2019, with a vision of harnessing the power of open banking to process instant bank payments between consumers and merchants.

With no signup or card details required, Brite users authenticate using their bank’s usual ID method. This is not only convenient and secure but provides merchants with fast fund settlement, zero chargebacks, and reduced costs.

Led by an experienced team of fintech executives, Brite is a licensed Payment Institution under the supervision of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority and adheres to the highest regulatory standards (including PSD2) across the EU/EES.

With connections to thousands of banks and an expanding range of payment products, Brite’s dedication to innovation and payment security is gaining recognition across markets.

Founder / CEO
Lena Hackelöer
“Brite is a complete Pay by Bank solution that receives, collects, and reconciles funds. With us, money instantly moves between merchants and end users – in both directions – with significant savings compared to traditional payment methods, such as credit cards.”
