Other recent additions to their European roster include: Click A Taxi, Hailo, MailMojo, Tictail and Wrapp.

Braintree also announced the company is now handling $10 billion in payments annually, with more than 25 percent originating outside of the United States. Braintree's sophisticated, developer-friendly payment platform allows companies to scale their businesses around the globe. Braintree expanded last year internationally, making next-generation payment capabilities, such as one touch purchasing, mobile payments and foreign currency acceptance, much more accessible for online and mobile commerce companies throughout Europe, Australia and North America.

"At Mojang, we are 100 percent focused on developing fun and engaging games," said Carl Manneh, CEO, Mojang. "With a reliable partner like Braintree we are able to keep that focus, while also providing our customers with the easiest payment experience possible."

Historically, European startups have had challenges getting their businesses off the ground because legacy payment infrastructure such as gateways and merchant accounts, typically provided by large banks and payment companies, were very difficult to access. With its international expansion, Braintree is stepping in to fill this void by providing fast-growing companies of all sizes with access to sophisticated payment tools.

"Every month we are hearing from innovative companies in Europe looking to bring their businesses to market or to expand internationally. To date, they have not had a payment solution that they could count on and they have been desperately looking for a better option," said Klas Back, General Manager of International at Braintree. "With Braintree, our customers can focus on doing what they do best—building great products—and leave the payments part to us."
