History

In 2012, by decision of Bank of Lithuania, the company was issued an email a license of a monetary institution, granting the right to carry out activities related to electronic issuing money and providing payment services in Lithuania and all European Union countries. Bank of Lithuania granted the first electronic money institution license. At the same time, expansion abroad began, where the payment portal was introduced in 2013 under the name Paysera.[3]

In September 2014, the address of Mokejimai.lt was changed to Paysera.lt.[4]

In 2016, the Paysera Tickets ticketing platform has been launched.[5]

In 2018 the company introduced instant transfers in euros.[6]

In July 2019, the company announced that it had opened a customer service center in Bucharest, Romania.[7]

In August 2020, the company became the official payment operator of the e-commerce platform Shopify.[8]

Contraversies

In February 2023, Algerian police arrested representatives of the Paysera bank who were working illegally in the country and were conducting operations without the country's license.[9] Company representatives claim that the report is false, because the investigation is against the call center hired by the company, and the company itself has not received any charges.[10] The company moved customer service from Algeria to Morocco and Madagascar, where it hired call centers.[11]
