VIENNA, Austria—Dimoco Payment Services has announced that it has completed the process to become a licensee of Mastercard. As an independent and licensed merchant acquirer, Dimoco may now integrate credit card acceptance and payment processing so that its business may be done with a single contract, connection and settlement. According to the time table of the company, the membership approval process with other leading international schemes are ongoing, and finalization is to be expected in Q4 2019.
Since its founding in 2016, the Vienna-based company has developed into a PSD2 compliant payment institution and payment service provider with a comprehensive range of features and services. The latest achievement in receiving the Mastercard membership supports its strategy to position itself as a payment service provider and independent, standalone acquirer with a personal approach and high flexibility.

With the new setup, we bring now our merchants as close as possible to the scheme network," said Boris Kersten, Managing Director at Dimoco Payment Services.
