Accept Adyen
without building the integration

Adyen is an enterprise payment platform that combines gateway, risk and acquiring in one contract, so a merchant deals with a single counterparty instead of stitching together a gateway and a separate acquirer. It is built for large, multi-market volume and prices accordingly.

Adyen in summary

Coverage
Global, with local acquiring across Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Adyen sets a minimum volume expectation, so it suits established merchants rather than new stores.

Among the markets Adyen serves — their own list is authoritative (opens in new tab).

Currencies
  • EUR
  • GBP
  • USD

Among those supported. Which ones your account can charge in depends on its registered country.

Fees
Set and billed by Adyen, and published on their pricing page (opens in new tab). PaymentHood adds nothing on top, at any volume.

Written against Adyen's own documentation on . This page deliberately states no fees, no counts and no completeness claims, because those change without notice — for anything you are about to build on, Adyen's own documentation (opens in new tab) is the authority.

Integration

What PaymentHood handles for you

A direct Adyen integration is not just an API call. These are the parts every team ends up rebuilding — and the parts PaymentHood ships already done.

Credentials
API key plus merchant account identifier, held server-side in PaymentHood
Webhook security
HMAC-signed notification, validated before an order is released
Payment verification
Server-side payment result re-check against the Adyen API before fulfilment
  • Idempotent charge creation, so a retried request never double-charges a customer
  • Automatic failover to another configured provider when Adyen is unreachable
  • One reconciliation view across Adyen and every other provider you run
  • Provider credentials never reach the storefront or the customer's browser
  • Adding or switching a provider later is a dashboard change, not a re-integration
Setup

Connecting Adyen takes three steps

1

Open your Adyen account

Register directly with Adyen and complete their onboarding. Funds settle from Adyen into your own bank account — PaymentHood never holds merchant money.

2

Add the credentials to PaymentHood

Paste your Adyen API credentials into the PaymentHood dashboard. They are stored server-side and never exposed to your storefront.

3

Enable it at checkout

Install the PaymentHood plugin for your platform, paste your PaymentHood API key, and Adyen appears as a payment option. Test in sandbox, then switch to live.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually not. Adyen prices and onboards for scale, and expects meaningful monthly volume. If you are starting out, a provider with no volume floor is a better first choice — and PaymentHood makes moving to Adyen later a dashboard change rather than a re-integration.

When Adyen acquires locally rather than routing cross-border, the transaction looks domestic to the issuing bank. That typically means a higher authorisation rate and lower scheme fees in that market — the main reason large multi-market merchants choose it.

Yes. Routing by country or currency is exactly what PaymentHood's orchestration layer is for, and it is configured in the dashboard rather than in your checkout.

No. Adyen bills you directly for its own fees, and PaymentHood takes no percentage and no per-transaction cut at any volume. See PaymentHood pricing.
