Transferra Partners With Guru Pay to Give UK Businesses Instant Euro Payments Across Europe

London, United Kingdom, October 20th, 2026, FinanceWire

Transferra’s UK clients can now pay suppliers and partners in Europe the way a local business would - through SEPA Instant, with funds arriving in seconds, 24/7

Transferra, a UK FCA-authorised Electronic Money Institution, today announced a partnership with Guru Pay, an Electronic Money Institution authorised and regulated by the Bank of Lithuania. Through the partnership, Transferra's UK business clients can send euro payments to recipients across the SEPA area as local transfers, settled through SEPA Instant in seconds rather than days.

For UK businesses that trade with Europe, a euro payment to a supplier in Germany or a contractor in Spain has typically travelled as an international transfer, passing through intermediary institutions, picking up fees along the way and arriving one or more business days later. With Guru Pay as its EU payments partner, Transferra now routes these payments through the European payment rails directly, so they are processed as domestic euro transfers.

What Changes for Transferra Clients:

• Instant settlement. Euro payments sent through SEPA Instant are credited to the recipient's account within seconds.
• Always on. SEPA Instant runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including weekends and public holidays.
• Local treatment. Payments are processed as in-region euro transfers, avoiding the intermediary chain of an international wire.
• One account. Clients manage euro payments from the same Transferra account they use for 40+ currencies and payments to 195+ countries, with the same dedicated account manager.

"Our clients trade with Europe every day: suppliers in Germany, manufacturers in Poland, partners in the Netherlands. A euro payment from London shouldn't behave like it is crossing an ocean," said Alexey Reshko, COO of Transferra. "With Guru Pay, a payment from a UK business to a European supplier now works the way a payment between two local businesses does. It lands in seconds, on any day of the week, and our clients can tell their counterparties the money is already there."

“For Transferra’s clients, this means being able to pay a supplier on a Friday evening without waiting until Monday for the money to arrive,” said Agnė Kavaliauskaitė, Head of Payments & Operations at Guru Pay. “Our role is to make that work behind the scenes, so Transferra can offer instant euro payments through the service its clients already use.”

Availability

Instant euro payments to the SEPA area are already available to Transferra business clients.
