2Checkout (formerly known as Avangate) was established in 2006 by local entrepreneurs Radu Georgescu and Cristian Badea and acquired in 2013 by U.S. investment fund Francisco Partners.

“Over the past years, the team has grown constantly by 15-20% and we expect this trend to be kept in 2020. To support this growth, the expansion of the office space came naturally. Along with the expansion, we planned to turn the place where we spend most of the day into an environment as cosy and relaxing as possible”, said Madalina Teodorescu, HR vice-president at 2Checkout.

Currently, the company’s team in Romania has 340 employees, within the departments of software development, marketing, sales, financial, customer support and operational, 20 more than estimated at the beginning of 2019. Worldwide, 2Checkout will close 2019 with more than 400 employees.
