Adyen NV said Wednesday that Alexander Matthey will be appointed as its new chief technology officer from Jan. 1, replacing co-founder and current CTO Arnout Schuijff.

The Dutch payments company said Mr. Matthey joined Adyen over five years ago from Glossybox--which is backed by Rocket Internet SE--and has been serving on its extended management board since Jan. 1, 2019.

Adyen last month said Mr. Schuijff would step down at the end of the year.
