Wero Ready
A fixed-scope service that gets merchants accepting Wero — the bank-backed, pan-European payment scheme from EPI — without a bespoke consulting engagement or an open-ended dev project.
Wero settles over SEPA Instant Credit Transfer, directly between bank accounts, backed by a consortium of Europe's largest banks. For merchants, that's a checkout option that typically costs less than cards — but only once it's actually wired into the checkout, reconciled against orders, and running in production. That's the part we do.
Try the checkout demo →iDEAL is becoming Wero
Wero went live for Dutch online shops on 26 October 2026, and iDEAL is switched off at the end of 2027. On a standard PSP setup there's little to do. The work is in everything built around iDEAL: subscriptions that start with an iDEAL payment, direct or custom integrations, refunds, reconciliation, and every invoice and email that says “iDEAL”.
- Every place iDEAL is used: checkout, recurring payments, refunds, invoices, emails
- Your PSP's Wero readiness, timeline and pricing
- Impact of Wero's dispute rules on your refund process
- A fixed-price plan for the work, or confirmation that there's none
- Recurring payments and subscriptions moved off the iDEAL + direct debit pattern
- Direct or custom iDEAL integrations moved to Wero through a PSP
- Refund, dispute and reconciliation processes updated, including the ERP
- Customer-facing wording and staff runbook
Three fixed-scope engagements
No discovery phase before a merchant knows what they're buying. Each tier is priced and scoped up front.
- Audit of current PSP / checkout stack
- Wero cost estimate vs. current card and iDEAL cost, at your PSP's actual pricing
- Recommended integration path — PSP plugin or custom integration
- Refund and dispute readiness
- Go / no-go report
- Enable & configure Wero through the existing acquirer
- Checkout UX — button placement, QR on desktop, app switch on mobile
- Sandbox testing & certification support
- Staff runbook
- Integration with your PSP's or acquirer's Wero API, for custom checkouts and stacks without a plugin
- Custom checkout flow and order status handling
- Reconciliation build — Wero payments, refunds and disputes ↔ orders and ERP
- PSP certification support and fallback / error handling
Includes monitoring & alerting, reconciliation support, dispute handling as Wero's dispute rules take effect, and a priority slot for new capabilities — subscriptions, payment on delivery, in-store QR, invoice payments — as they ship.
The wedge, not the whole business
Each phase reuses the same relationships and infrastructure — no phase requires starting a new sales motion from zero.
This service. Wero is live in Germany, France, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands, online shops are coming on, and Dutch iDEAL moves to Wero by the end of 2027.
In-store payments in France and Germany, subscriptions, payment on delivery and invoice payments, and cross-border with Europe's other national schemes. Same merchants, same reconciliation backbone — sold through the Managed retainer, not a new pitch.
PSPs and banks accepting Wero need onboarding, reconciliation and dispute services around EPI's interfaces. Phase 1–2 delivery data — go-lives, volume, issues resolved — becomes the credibility case.
