🏆 I get more energy from getting acknowledged for impactful Partnerships, than I get from winning something individually. I'll tell you why 🏆 1. Winning alone is just boring, good luck celebrating by yourself 2. Partnership makes growth sustainable instead of one off wins 3. The digital world is getting more noisy, together you can complete the picture 4. Platforms & Agencies are seen more as commodities, together you stay ahead. 5. Integrations are vital, every organisation I know is looking to get rid of siloes to create a 360 degree view over their customer. This foto shows exactly what winning as a team and as partners means. Thanks for the acknowledgement Joram van Loenen! 🚀 Go team Irenke Kaplany Bart Meijer Fiona Gebhard!

My frustration on the Padel court after getting beaten by Mollie's partners is a reminder of the competitive spirit we share. 😁 Partnerships are essential to Mollie's growth, and what better way to celebrate a successful 2025 than by engaging with our key Agency and Platform partners in a spirited match. Here's to an even more successful 2026!

Ik maak het mijzelf soms erg lastig door meteen aan de slag te gaan, zonder eerst bij het proces stil te staan. Kwestie van te snel recht op mijn doel af. Herkenbaar? Geef mij 5 ingrediënten en ik maak een gerecht voor je on the spot, Jamie Oliver is daarin mijn inpiratie geweest in mijn jeugd als The naked chef. Dit gaat mij na vele jaren met af en toe falen, nu inmiddels erg goed af. Vind ik ook erg leuk, 0 stress. Maar dit proces had effectiever gekund. Ik kan je uit ervaring vertellen, met deze approach val je totaal door de mand bij het Zuurdesembrood bakken. Dit is een secuur proces die je moet volgen voor het beste resultaat. Gelukkig hadden ik, Alex Crick, Willem Hasenaar, Caspar Leusink & Oscar Koekenberg MRE de hulp van volleerd bakker Mark van den Brink (+500 broden) Hij leert teams dmv een zuurdesembrood cursus Zelfvertrouwen op te bouwen en zelfsturend te worden. Check dus even de Zelv pagina als je team wat hulp kan gebruiken!

Representing Mollie on stage for the first time last week was lots of fun. Taking home the Ask Phill 👑 Partner of the year award 👑 was even more awesome! Thanks for joining me Paul Wijnhoven (OFM.) and Wibrand de Reij. The good vibes and jokes stood out, but more importantly the topic of OFM.'s growth to 100 million in collaboration with Mollie attracted such a big audience. And wow, our partner Ask Phill's 7th edition of NXT:Commerce Summit was organized incredibly well, and what a great vibe! Thanks for allowing us to sponsor Martijn Wijsmuller, Joram van Loenen and Gabija Poderytė. Thanks to the Mollies who contributed to the success: Mia Elise Hunter Bart Meijer Irenke Kaplany Mariana Augusto Lisanne Sanders Charlotte Hoogstra Until next year.

✨ On Tuesday we celebrated our 2025 achievements with our amazing Agency & Platform partners! ✨ At Mollie, partnerships are one of our most important drivers of revenue and growth. To celebrate this year’s success, we spent the afternoon playing padel, recognising the customer successes we achieved together, and looked ahead to 2026. Because success is even better when it’s shared, we hosted an auction to raise money for Stichting Kinderen Kankervrij (KiKa). Congratulations to our winners: 🏆 Kega - Mollie Partner of the Year 2025 (Joachim Dircke, Jeroen Van Meel) 🌟 Itonomy E-commerce Professionals - Mollie Most Promising New Partner of the Year 2025 (Christiaan de Jong) 🎾 Ask Phill, Silverflow & PaymentGenes - Winners of the padel tournament (Joram van Loenen, Martijn Wijsmuller, Michael Tailleur, Bram Vreugdenhil) Thanks to all partners who joined us and thanks to Klarna for making this event possible.

Scaling Europe: The Payments Report 2026 is here. Right now, the rules of European commerce are changing. Regulators are introducing new rails, fraud attacks are getting sharper, and constant shifts in the payment landscape are drowning operations teams in noise. Treating payments as a simple, passive utility no longer works. Your payment setup needs to evolve – turning from a back-office cost centre into the beating heart of your commercial intelligence. We created this report to show you exactly how. It’s a playbook to help you cut through the administrative noise and turn European complexity into your commercial advantage. Download it now: https://lnkd.in/gnCXy-fy The report is built on the lessons and operational realities of leaders actively scaling across the continent. So, a huge thanks to the people who shared their expertise with us: Rutger van Boxtel (Otrium), Victor Mortreu (Just Russel), the team KPMG, and Mollie’s own Iryna Agieieva, Diane Albouy, Dave Smallwood, and Bernardo Caldas.
