Yapily, one of Europe’s leading Open Banking infrastructure providers, today reveals the next phase in its ongoing collaboration with Google: bank account verification for Google Cloud customers across Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Lithuania, Italy, Belgium, Austria, Ireland and Sweden.

Building on the bank account verification service announced in October 2025, as a next step, Google Cloud customers will have the option to use Yapily’s Open Banking connectivity to verify their bank accounts. This represents an alternative to manual document checks with a verification flow built on direct bank connections.

What it delivers

For Google Cloud customers across select SEPA markets, the bank account verification option is built into the onboarding process. This means:

• Bank account verification in minutes: Customers confirm their business bank account using bank-sourced data, returning a verification result in minutes, instead of waiting for manual document review.
• Several markets, one integration: Consistent bank account verification for Google Cloud customers across Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Lithuania, Italy, Belgium, Austria, Ireland and Sweden through a single integration with Yapily.

A growing role in European enterprise infrastructure

Google Cloud offers a powerful, optimised AI stack – including AI infrastructure, leading models like Gemini, data management capabilities, multicloud security solutions, developer tools and platform, as well as agents and applications – that enables organisations to transform their business for the Agentic Era.

In the UK alone, Open Banking payments have reached a record 36 million per month, with over 17.5 million active user connections, representing a major shift in how consumers and businesses move money. The European market has surpassed 63 million users as of 2024, continuing to grow its position as the world’s most mature ecosystem, while Open Banking now accounts for around 17% of total e-commerce transaction value across the continent.

Yapily has been central to the growth. The company recently hit profitability, significantly grew revenue over the past year, and continues to scale by adding enterprise customers to its portfolio, including Google, Adyen, Ant Group, Intuit QuickBooks, Pleo and Allica Bank. Yapily connects to both business and consumer accounts at over 2,000 banks across 19 markets in the UK and Europe, and its platform supports use cases from account-to-account payments and variable recurring payments to data enrichment, transaction categorisation and account verification.

Stefano Vaccino, founder and chief executive officer of Yapily, said: “Bank account verification is one of the most practical applications of Open Banking, and seeing it deployed at this scale by Google across European markets is a strong signal of what enterprise infrastructure looks like today. We are proud to be part of it.”
