With TrueLayer’s open banking technology, Papa Johns customers can now enjoy an even smoother checkout experience, eliminating the need for card details. Leveraging open banking, Pay by Bank enables direct payments from a customer’s bank account, bypassing traditional card networks. Transactions are securely authenticated in real time, often using biometrics verification through users’ banking apps. This not only reduces fraud risk but also offers a faster, more secure way to pay.

“We’re always looking for ways to enhance our customers’ experience, from better ingredients to better technology,” said Eamon Lindsell, Senior Product Manager for Digital Technology at Papa Johns. “By integrating TrueLayer’s Pay by Bank solution, we’re improving our customers’ digital experience and increasing customer retention, all while reducing fraud, eliminating chargebacks and lowering our cost of payments by more than 40%.”

  • Customers: Access to TrueLayer’s user network of 12 million Pay by Bank users who have a 25% uplift in first time conversion for users in TrueLayer's network.

  • Speed: Instant payments to help merchant cashflow, and instant refunds, which delights consumers.
