Trustly is pleased to announce a new partnership with Northmill, a Swedish technology bank that provides the tools for people to make better financial choices. Thanks to the partnership, customers of Northmill can continue to receive instant pay-outs directly to their bank accounts. Trustly supports all the major Swedish banks.

Skilling, a digital trading platform, has chosen to integrate with Trustly to help its traders deposit and withdraw funds more easily. Through the partnership, Skilling can offer its traders a fast and secure way to start investing in just a few clicks, as well as instant access to their funds. The partnership is now live across all countries where they operate under CySEC licence.
