Betalo, a prominent Swedish payment institution and winner of the Swedish Class of Mastercard Lighthouse fall program in 2024, has formed a strategic partnership with Mastercard in Sweden. This collaboration aims to bring convenience and ease in the life of Swedish business owners, by leveraging Betalo’s innovative payment solution and Mastercard’s extensive network.

Partnering with Betalo, the winner of the Swedish Mastercard Lighthouse FINITIV 2024 fall class, is very important as it will bring convenience and ease to the Swedish business owners through their use of Mastercard Business Cards with existing credit lines when paying invoices. In addition, through Betalo´s offering included in the Mastercard Business Bonus program will business users have a discounted fee for the payments. All in all, this partnership aims to optimize cash flow and simplify the B2B payment processes for the businesses, and simultaneously generating loyalty benefits that could be part of their Mastercard Business Card offering.
