New milestone: Flatpay from Denmark hits 1,000 employees in just three years

Flatpay is without a doubt one of Denmark’s fastest-rising companies – and currently the fastest-growing fintech in Northern Europe. In just a few years, the company has gone from an idea to processing payments worth billions of kroner – and has already surpassed 20,000 customers.
We’ve previously spoken with CEO and co-founder Sander Janca-Jensen about the company’s culture here on dontt.dk, and with co-founder Rasmus Carlsen, who heads up marketing and brand, on how to build visibility and trust in an industry that’s been stagnant for decades. Shortly before that interview, Flatpay secured DKK 430 million in funding – a boost that accelerated their expansion even further.
Since then, the pace has only increased, and now another milestone has been reached: Flatpay has grown to 1,000 employees across five countries.
“It’s a culture we protect – and one we believe can scale globally.”

Sander Janca-Jensen, CEO and co-founder, explains:
“August 2025 is a historic month for us. From the first ideas in a small office to 1,000 dedicated employees in just three years – it’s a growth journey that proves we’ve tapped into a real market need.”
As in our previous interview with Sander, he once again points to culture as the company’s strongest growth driver – a culture built on respect, positive energy, and ambition.
“We’ve proven that when you bring together people who want to work with each other – and for the customer – you can create something unique. Our employees are given responsibility from day one and the opportunity to grow alongside the company. It’s a culture we protect – and one we believe can scale globally,” he says.
Next chapter: International expansion
Flatpay’s roots are firmly planted in Denmark, but its growth is now accelerating across borders. The company deliberately sends Danish employees to act as cultural ambassadors when entering new markets, ensuring that the DNA from its early years remains intact.
“This is only the beginning. We’re growing fast – but sustainably. Our formula is simple: the right people, freedom with responsibility, and an uncompromising focus on the customer’s needs. That’s what got us here, and that’s what will carry us forward,” concludes Sander Janca-Jensen.
