While Nexi operates across Europe, we are also a strong local player in Switzerland, supporting merchants with solutions tailored to the Swiss payment ecosystem.
Our role is often not directly visible, but it is essential. Whenever a customer taps a card, uses a mobile wallet, or pays online, Nexi operates in the background to ensure that transactions are processed correctly, securely, and in real time.

What Nexi Does
As an acquirer, Nexi processes transactions on behalf of merchants and ensures that funds are transferred from the customer’s bank to the merchant.
In practice, this means that for every payment, Nexi is responsible for:
- Routing the transaction through the relevant payment network
- Requesting authorization from the issuing bank
- Managing settlement and payout of funds
- Providing reporting and operational visibility to merchants
Payment Solutions
In addition to transaction processing, Nexi provides the infrastructure and solutions required to accept payments across different environments.
This includes:
- 🏪 Point of sale terminals for in-store acceptance
- 📱 SoftPOS solutions for mobile acceptance
- 🌐 E-commerce solutions for online payments
