The following announcement was issued as a press release and shared here in its original format.

London, Thursday April 2, 2026 – Paysecure, a leading global payment orchestration platform, and Yaspa, a leading fintech specialising in payments and identity solutions, have today announced a strategic partnership to bring true intelligence to the payments market.

Leveraging Paysecure’s AI-powered routing and deep transaction insights and Yaspa’s Intelligent Payments, operators will be able to reduce fraud while smoothing the payment journey for users through one platform to retain and grow its customer base.

Yaspa’s Intelligent Payments is the pinnacle of payment processing technology, merging instant bank-to-bank transfers with real-time data intelligence. Built on open banking rails, the solution allows businesses to facilitate Pay by Bank transactions that settle instantly while simultaneously pulling deep insights from the user’s financial behaviour. Unlike standard payment gateways that simply move money, Yaspa’s system turns every transaction into a touchpoint for identity verification, financial health, and risk assessment. By linking live bank data with AI-powered analysis, the platform provides a comprehensive view of a customer’s financial health and authenticity at the exact moment a payment is made.

Paysecure is a next-generation payment orchestration platform that enables businesses to optimise every stage of the payment journey through AI-powered, smart routing, real-time intelligence and global connectivity. Its advanced data and intelligence capabilities analyse payment behaviour and performance, providing actionable insights that help merchants tailor payment experience, improve customer retention and maximise revenue opportunities.

This partnership will leverage the combined data and intelligence of both solutions to deliver smarter, more efficient payment journeys. By joining Paysecure’s ecosystem, Yaspa’s open banking and PSP solutions can be enabled through a single integration, giving merchants access to account-to-account payments alongside a global marketplace of providers. Together, the solutions leverage AI-driven insights, across spend patterns, currency, offers, fraud and performance, enabling merchants to safeguard the experience and maximise the potential of every transaction. Combined with Paysecure’s intelligent routing, businesses can dynamically optimise payment workflows to address key metrics.

Yaspa’s Chief Revenue Officer, Justin Fraser, said: “This integration and partnership with Paysecure is a genuinely game-changing moment in the payments industry. Never before have operators had this level of intelligence and data from a third party payments solution at their fingertips. We look forward to working closely with the Paysecure team.”

Mike Peplow, Chief Operating Officer at Paysecure, said: “The intelligence data we collect drives our AI analysis enabling real time decisions on routing, payment method and fraud management. Working with Yaspa not only provides a best in class open banking, but delivers access to account information that further enhances our ability to optimise payment selection, actively lower transaction risk and personalise the end customer experience. The partnership with Yaspa unites two data driven platforms to proactively support merchants transform their customer journey, offer more payment choice and better manage the transaction workflow.”

Paysecure was recently awarded best newcomer at the Card and Payment Awards 2026. This followed the recent announcement of Paysecure’s five-fold increase in its number of merchants using its technology. Its orchestration platform now connects merchants to over 500+ PSPs/acquirers and alternative payment methods worldwide.

Recently, Yaspa was named the fourth fastest-growing start-up in the UK and Ireland by Sifted, and in the last 12 months, it was named winner of the Real-Time Payments Innovation award at the 2025 Payments Awards and one of the CB Insights Top 100 Fintechs, a global ranking that spotlights the most promising and innovative companies shaping the future of financial services. In July 2025, Yaspa closed a $12M investment round led by Discerning Capital, and shortly after saw the opening of new offices in Atlanta, US, as well as a tech hub in Leeds, UK.
