Mimir acquires payment platform from Swedbank’s PayEx to launch new fintech company

Mimir Group today announces the acquisition of a payments platform from PayEx, part of Swedbank, and the launch of Everspring Solutions – a new independent fintech company built to scale embedded payment solutions across the Nordics and beyond.

The transaction marks a carve-out of an established payments business previously operating within PayEx. By separating the platform into a standalone company, Mimir aims to accelerate product development, expand into new markets, and unlock growth beyond its former structure.

Everspring is built on an existing transaction infrastructure, customer base, and multi-product offering within digital payments. The platform enables partners to integrate payments, financing and stored-value solutions directly into their own systems – allowing end-customers to transact seamlessly within existing digital environments.

The business already supports payment and financing solutions across multiple sectors, including healthcare, where solutions such as MediPay have gained strong traction in Norway and are now being expanded across the Nordic region.

The transaction is structured as a long-term partnership, with PayEx retaining a significant minority stake in Everspring alongside Mimir as majority owner.

“This is exactly the type of platform we look to build and scale,” says Erik Bork, CEO at Mimir. “It combines proven technology, real commercial traction and a clear path to expansion. As a standalone company, we can now accelerate growth, expand into new verticals and scale the platform beyond its current footprint.”

Nelson Walden, previously at Visa, assumes the role as CEO of Everspring Solutions as of April 1, 2026.

“Becoming an independent company gives us the focus and flexibility to fully realise the potential of the platform,” says Nelson Walden. “Our priority is to continue building a modern, scalable payments infrastructure that delivers real value to our partners and their customers.”

Existing customers and partners will experience no disruption, with all services continuing as before.
