The Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2, Directive (EU) 2015/2366,[1] which replaced the Payment Services Directive (PSD), Directive 2007/64/EC[2]) is an EU Directive, administered by the European Commission (Directorate General Internal Market) to regulate payment services and payment service providers throughout the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA). The PSD's purpose was to increase pan-European competition and participation in the payments industry also from non-banks, and to provide for a level playing field by harmonizing consumer protection and the rights and obligations of payment providers and users.[3] The key objectives of the PSD2 directive are creating a more integrated European payments market, making payments more secure and protecting consumers.[4]
