Mollie review
A flexible payment gateway for European sellers, marketplaces and recurring payments.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Mollie handles payments for businesses selling online or in person, with tools for marketplaces and SaaS platforms as well as direct merchants. It suits European businesses that need local payment methods, recurring billing, or payment acceptance across web and physical channels. Payment options span cards, bank-based methods, direct debit, buy-now-pay-later, wallets, vouchers and point of sale. Hosted checkout and payment links offer ways to collect online payments, while Mollie Connect extends the platform to merchant onboarding, split payments, routing and payouts.
Pricing starts with Pay as you go at €0 per month, with no monthly commitment and fees charged when a sale occurs; transaction fees still apply. Pro costs €20 per month and adds lower in-person transaction rates and one hardware terminal license. The published plans therefore distinguish between transaction-based access and a paid option oriented toward in-person acceptance. Businesses comparing costs should account for transaction fees as well as the monthly price, particularly if they plan to use terminals.
For technical fit, Mollie offers a REST API, webhooks, checkout components, official SDKs and prebuilt integrations. Listed language integrations include Laravel Cashier, NodeJS, PHP, Python, Ruby, Java, .NET and Golang. The platform combines payment processing with refunds, reporting APIs, fraud controls and risk management, alongside marketplace routing and merchant verification. Payment-method and payout availability can vary by merchant location, currency and account configuration. Mollie is a strong fit for European sellers and marketplaces that value a broad payment mix and multiple acceptance channels; businesses seeking a simple flat monthly cost may prefer a gateway with pricing structured around a fixed subscription.
