Why Sway?
We created Sway after realising in-person payments were due for an upgrade.

Taking card payments comes with a cost
Every year, £48 billion+ is wasted on card transaction fees – and that’s Europe alone. And the problem doesn’t seem to be slowing down. We created Sway for merchants to be less dependent on cards, have instant settlement, and get rid of the cost of accepting payments.

Pay by bank as a better alternative to cards
Faster payments, allow the financial industry to move forward. We make it extremely easy for you to ditch cards and get paid without hidden fees.

Bringing payments to the 21st century
Cards were invented in the 50s, and not much has changed since then. The rise of Apple/Google Pay, which are solutions built on top of the card network, made mobile payments one of the most common options amongst consumers.
Mobile-only
Finally, no extra hardware is needed to make a payment on either side. Everything happens through the phone.
Payments, connected
For too long payments have been disconnected from everything else we do. We can now change that.
