Euronet Worldwide, a US payments provider, has acquired CrediaBank’s merchant acquiring business, alongside a broader partnership, signaling a strategic push to deepen Euronet’s vertical integration across acquiring, ATM operations, and card processing in Greece. By taking over CrediaBank’s ATM network management and forming a multi-year collaboration on payments and digital wallets, Euronet strengthens local distribution while deepening its presence in the country’s retail payments infrastructure. The transaction reflects a wider industry trend in which banks offload non-core payments assets to specialized processors, while global payments firms consolidate scale, operational control, and regional reach.
