At Citizen we're here to simplify the way we pay.
We use Open Banking standards to provide simple and secure instant cardless payments - payments that are fast and cost-effective for businesses, and super-smooth and rewarding for customers.
Citizen was founded in 2017 by former WorldPay CTO, James Neville.
We became a regulated payment institute in 2019 and were among the first companies licensed to provide payments and identity services using Open Banking. We're connected to all major UK and a growing list of European banks, and are used by business and consumers across a wide range of industries.
If you still think cards are the future of payments, then grab a cup of coffee and listen to James' view on the matter
