Nuvei announced it has integrated Visa Direct for Account into its global payments platform, giving merchants the ability to send funds directly to consumers' and workers' bank accounts in eligible countries. The new functionality expands Nuvei's portfolio of faster payout solutions, enabling businesses to provide customers with quick, reliable, and convenient access to money wherever they are.
Nuvei is among the first global acquirers to enable Visa Direct for Account alongside Visa Direct for Card, strengthening its position as a Visa partner in enabling faster global money movement. This milestone builds on prior collaborations between the two companies, including being an early acquirer to offer Visa Direct for Card in countries such as Colombia and supporting Visa's Agentic Commerce initiatives.
Built on Visa's trusted payment network, Visa Direct for Account complements Nuvei's existing Visa Direct for Card capability to deliver a range of payout options. With a single integration, merchants can offer account-based payouts in multiple currencies and, for eligible card transactions, faster funds availability that can improve cash flow, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency.
"Consumers everywhere expect instant access to their money, whether it is a payout, refund, or remittance," said Phil Fayer, Chair and CEO of Nuvei. "By expanding our Visa Direct offering, we're empowering merchants to meet those expectations with faster, more convenient, and more reliable payouts that enhance everyday financial experiences."
"Meaningful progress in payouts comes from ecosystem collaboration," said Vira Platanova, Global Head of Visa Direct. "Expanding our integration with Nuvei's platform means we are able to help more businesses reach payees with capabilities built for scale, compliance, and operational simplicity."
