In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show, Alex Theuma talks to Koen Köppen, CEO of Mollie and ex-CTO of Klarna.
Koen shares how Mollie is expanding from 6 to 31 markets by 2026, why they prioritise operational efficiency over growth hacks, and how AI reduced their customer contact rate by 3x. Plus: essential lessons for SaaS founders on market expansion, avoiding premature scaling, and embedded finance.
