From merchant agreements to acquiring negotiations, from payment provider partnerships to payout infrastructure - this is where legal expertise directly impacts payment operations and business growth.

Within our holding, we operate in high-risk industries and manage complex cross-border payment flows across Europe and Asia. Our payment infrastructure includes acquiring, alternative payment methods, and local payout solutions, working through a broad network of PSPs, banks, EMIs, aggregators, and payment providers.

We are looking for a strong mid-level Legal Counsel who can independently own the legal side of our payment operations from day one - drafting, negotiating, and managing contracts with merchants and payment partners without constant supervision.

Your Mission

• Draft, review, and negotiate merchant agreements and commercial payment contracts from scratch.
• Build legal frameworks for merchant onboarding, payment processing, settlements, reserves, liability allocation, and cross-border payment flows.
• Ensure agreements properly address fraud, chargebacks, disputes, reserve models, termination risks, and regional payment requirements.

Provider, Payment Infrastructure & Acquiring Agreements

• Draft, review, and negotiate agreements with PSPs, acquiring partners, banks, EMIs, card schemes, payment methods, aggregators, and payout providers.

• Manage legal negotiations related to acquiring infrastructure, settlement terms, reserve models, payment liabilities, and commercial arrangements.

Risk Management & Legal Support

• Identify and mitigate legal risks related to payment processing, high-risk merchants, cross-border operations, and payment products.
• Advise Business Development, Compliance, Finance, Product, and Operations teams on payment-related legal matters.
• Prepare legal opinions, support strategic projects, and ensure legal solutions balance business objectives with risk management.

Cross-Functional Collaboration
