Midnite Integrates TrueLayer Pay by Bank for Deposits and Withdrawals in the UK

Midnite has integrated TrueLayer Pay by Bank in the UK, allowing its users to make deposits and withdrawals directly from their bank accounts on its sports betting and iGaming platform. According to both companies, this tool eliminates the need to enter card data, using banking authentication — including biometrics — and real-time payment confirmation through a mobile app-to-app flow.

Implementing TrueLayer Pay by Bank at Midnite

The launch of Pay by Bank allows Midnite players to transfer funds instantly and securely, responding to expectations for speed and protection in transactions. Christian Huynh, Product Director at Midnite, emphasized:

“At Midnite, we want the experience to rival the best consumer apps, and payments are no exception. Players expect instant and secure transactions. The infrastructure of TrueLayer Pay by Bank allows us to deliver that. The early results speak for themselves.” (Christian Huynh, Midnite)

This new payment method responds to the industry's trend of reducing friction in the movement of funds, both for deposits and withdrawals, through direct connections with the user’s banking institutions.

Benefits of the 'Pay by Bank' Solution for Operators and Players

Among the main benefits that TrueLayer points out for iGaming operators and their users are:

• Immediate funding and withdrawal: funds are transferred almost instantly thanks to real-time payments.
• Enhanced security: through biometric authentication and integrated banking authorization processes.
• Optimized mobile flow: the process occurs smoothly via mobile apps, ensuring less friction for the user.
• Reduction of errors: by not manually entering card data, the rejections due to incorrect information are minimized.

TrueLayer has built this solution adapting to the demands of the regulated iGaming environment, where both operators and players demand immediate transactions and unequivocal confirmations.

Statements and Perspectives of the Involved Companies

From TrueLayer, Roberto Villani, Vice President of iGaming, highlighted:

“iGaming is where payments really get tested. Players want to move money in seconds, and operators need certainty in every transaction. That’s exactly what Pay by Bank offers. Midnite has designed a modern platform for a new generation of players, and now their payments meet those standards. The performance demonstrated from day one indicates the potential of this partnership.” (Roberto Villani, TrueLayer)

Both parties emphasize that the initial results reflect positive user acceptance and stable operation since the launch. Midnite believes that having methods like Pay by Bank enhances its offering for players who value agile and secure digital experiences.

Trends in Digital Payment Methods for iGaming

The use of account-to-account (A2A) solutions with real-time confirmation is on the rise among approved operators in markets such as the UK. The deployment of Pay by Bank fits within a transformative context in the online gaming payment sector, where operators aim for:

• Lower friction in registrations and transactions, aiming for customer loyalty.
• Reduction of operational costs associated with card transactions and intermediary wallets.
• Rigorous compliance with consumer protection regulations and fraud prevention.

The union of Midnite and TrueLayer reinforces the movement towards payment models that prioritize user control and immediacy. Companies in the sector are closely monitoring these launches, especially in regulated markets like the UK, where speed and security in payments are differentiating factors for player acquisition and retention.

Perspectives on the Future of Instant Payment in the UK

The deployment of Pay by Bank by Midnite and TrueLayer contributes to the overall trend of expanding instant payments in UK betting platforms.
