FinTech & Payment Regulations

Payment and fintech products require precise coordination between technology, regulations, and user responsibility. Mistakes in qualifying a service, designing payment process architecture, or regulatory communication can result in costly changes, scaling limitations, or regulatory intervention. We advise on designing payment services to ensure they are compliant from the outset while being ready for growth.

We work at the intersection of business models, products, and regulations. We organize requirements arising from payment law, open banking, and transaction security, translating them into terms and conditions, processes, contracts, and solutions that are practical and implementable. We support teams at market entry, regulatory changes, and product development stages — without losing control over risk and responsibility.

What We Help With in FinTech & Payment Regulations

Service Model and Regulatory Qualification

We determine whether the product falls under payment services, e-money, or open banking regulations and how to design the operational model and documentation.

Payment Law in Product Architecture

We help implement PSD2 requirements, SCA, and secure communication in transactional processes, API integrations, and exception handling.

Preparation for PSD3 / PSR

We analyze the impact of new regulations on processes, responsibility, and user relationships, and plan implementation changes.

Fraud, Chargeback, and Complaints

We design approaches to combat fraud, handle complaints, and fulfill reporting obligations in line with EBA guidelines.

Terms and Communication with Users

We create terms of use, fee policies, complaint procedures, and disclosure rules tailored to the product and user flow.

Contracts in the Payment Ecosystem

We negotiate contracts with PSPs, acquirers, gateway operators, and technology providers, organizing responsibility, SLAs, incidents, and audits.
