Is Mollie European?

Unresolved

Not established. Public sources do not show who ultimately controls Mollie.

Mollie is a Dutch company founded by Adriaan Mol, but public sources do not show who holds a majority of votes today. Its share-based purchase of GoCardless in 2026 brought in new shareholders, so older reports of founder majority control are out of date.

About Mollie

Mollie is a payment service provider that lets online and in-store businesses accept cards, bank payments and local payment methods. It is based in Amsterdam and licensed by De Nederlandsche Bank as an electronic money institution. In 2026 it completed the purchase of GoCardless, a UK bank payments company.

Ownership

Mollie B.V. is the licensed operating company. In the LEI register its parent is Mollie Holding B.V., which reports no parent company because it is held by natural persons, who are not named. Founder Adriaan Mol was reported in 2021 to hold a majority, but Mollie paid for GoCardless, completed on 1 September 2026, mostly in new Mollie shares, and no current shareholder list is public.
