Adyen completes Talon.One, Orb acquisitions

By Milan Rojan

Adyen has completed its acquisitions of loyalty platform Talon.One and enterprise billing provider Orb, while announcing leadership changes to support the integration of the two businesses and its expanding product portfolio.

Ingo Uytdehaage, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Adyen, said: “Adyen has evolved into a comprehensive platform offering multiple, integrated solutions. Aligning our executive leadership with this multi-product reality is a natural step forward. Gayathri’s appointment to CPO recognises her instrumental role in driving our product strategy and ambitions over the past three years, a momentum further amplified by the additions of Talon.One and Orb.”

Both acquisitions have officially closed on 1 July 2026 after receiving the required regulatory approvals and satisfying customary closing conditions. Adyen has now begun integrating Talon.One’s promotions platform and Orb’s billing capabilities into its payments and financial technology offering.

Alongside the completion of the transactions, Adyen has appointed Gayathri Rajan as Chief Product Officer with immediate effect. Hwa Tsao, currently Senior Vice President of Group Finance, has also been named interim Chief Financial Officer, effective 1 September 2026, following the previously announced departure of Ethan Tandowsky.

The appointments have been made as Co-Chief Executive Officer Ingo Uytdehaage oversees the integration of Talon.One and Orb. Both executives will report directly to Adyen’s Co-CEOs during the integration phase.

Rajan has brought more than 25 years of experience in product and technology leadership, having previously held roles at Google, DriveWealth and Vanguard. Tsao has contributed more than two decades of finance leadership experience across the technology and financial services sectors, including positions at ServiceNow, HP and Citigroup.

Adyen has confirmed that its search for a permanent Chief Financial Officer is continuing as planned and has stated that there have been no changes to its existing financial objectives following the completion of the acquisitions.
