Born to transform
The roots of Riverty go back to the 1960s when the originating company was founded as financial extension to the printing services Bertelsmann offered for book publishers.
Until the late 1990s the company acquired large international customers with a service offering ranging from Financial Services over Warehousing to Customer Relationship Management and IT Services. All services were brought together under the Arvato brand with Arvato Financial Solutions being one of the transformation drivers.
Starting with classical B2B factoring the scope of service got more international and broader in the 2000s. Fraud Prevention, Credit Agency Services, Debt Collection, Accounts Receivables Management and Buy Now Pay Later payment methods just to name some. All services operated under well-known brands: Arvato Financial Solutions, AfterPay, Paigo, and many more.
In 2022, we took a transformative step, as we pursue one, shared goal. We’re on a mission to enable financial freedom for everyone. That’s why we bring it all together: Riverty.
In 2023, Riverty received the Red Dot Design Award. In 2024, we strengthened our regulatory foundation and expanded our Buy Now, Pay Later offering through strategic partnerships with Mollie and Adyen.
In 2026, the establishment of Riverty Bank in Luxembourg marked another milestone in our journey, supporting our payments and credit portfolio. In the same year, we set our next ambition: to become Europe’s leading embedded financial workflows partner.
Built into the way our clients work
Our clients want more than single products. They want partners who are part of their daily business.
As a fintech company, we integrate financial services into their existing systems, processes and customer journeys, at checkout, on the invoice and in recovery. Across our payment, collection and factoring solutions, we combine deep integration, risk and data expertise and trusted execution to help our clients drive sales, strengthen cash flow and improve recovery.
We succeed when our clients succeed. That’s why we build long-term partnerships and make sure their customers are treated with trust, fairness and simplicity every step of the way: when shopping online, settling a bill in instalments or paying for a visit to the doctor.

Diversity at Riverty
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) is not just a social reality at Riverty. We see it as an opportunity and key to our company's success. Because everything that makes us different from one another - whether origin, age, gender, sexual orientation and identity, mental and physical abilities, religious beliefs or world view - becomes unimportant when people pursue a common goal. Moreover, diversity reveals potential, shows other perspectives, creates new solutions to challenges, and allows us to recognize and get to know new things.
