Trace's Take

Adyen is the proof case that payments infrastructure doesn't require Stripe- or Brex-style venture burn to win — it IPO'd in 2018, stayed lean, and still processes over €1.3 trillion a year for some of the biggest brands on earth. Its FY2025 numbers (EBITDA margin climbing to 53% even grew 18%) show real operating leverage, which is rare in payments at this scale. The risk is concentration: a handful of very large enterprise customers drive an outsized share of volume, so any one of them in-housing payments or switching providers moves the number more than at a broader-based competitor like Stripe.
