Cuba falls off @Visa and @Mastercard networks from tomorrow - as a result of the latest US / Donald Trump sanctions - due to an "undisclosed" foreign payment processor who handles the card transactions, having to pull the plug. translatingcuba.com/visa-and-maste…
It's June 4th not April 1st, but leaping on the viral DIY videos of melted #contactless #payment cards turned into magic wands - @Square sister company @CashApp just did the real thing. cash.app/press/tags
US administration using far right tropes against the UK democracy and against the wishes of grieving parents is when it's time to actively work to disconnect from US systems and schemes. Until this madness ends roll on payment sovereignty.
Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline. They must be rejected across the West. The United States sends our condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and the people of the United Kingdom at this troubling time.
Netherlands based pan European neobank @bunq is plotting UK banking licence to take on local rivals. cityam.com/bunq-revolut-r…
In the UK @Revolut is planning to launch 5 credit cards. sifted.eu/articles/revol…
Banking giant @BankofAmerica launch real time cross-border #payment network in select countries using real time off ramps such as @FasterPayments in the UK and @UPI_NPCI in India. newsroom.bankofamerica.com/content/newsro…
£9bn in 135m #payments seems remarkably low for the 10yrs since @GDSTeam launched a central PSP for UK public sector #acquiring? Anyhow, they're switching the contract to @Adyen from @stripe. Still remember that Crown Commercial RFP process to this day. 🙃 gds.blog.gov.uk/2026/06/02/bui…
@mttjon @Visa @Mastercard Aha sorry I missed this. Yes Aus and NZ have been very active in working through caps and good on NZ going after commercial card margin now too. Whether it stops surcharging is another matter!
Within days of latest antitrust moves by regulators in UK and Turkey against @Visa & @Mastercard interchange fees, now New Zealand Commerce Commission drafts new caps on commercial card fees to save #merchants around 33% #MIF costs (NZD$40m of NZD$125m). comcom.govt.nz/news-and-media…
Raft of #crypto announcements by @Checkout: after #stablecoin #merchant acceptance in partnership with @coinbase, now rapid #stablecoin settlement liquidity for US #merchants in partnership with @FireblocksHQ. 24/7 cashflow is big prize in card acquiring. checkout.com/newsroom/check…
Report that @Visa, @Mastercard & @stripe to announce US #stablecoin platform joint venture - with @coinbase potential participants. Could build on Bridge (@Stablecoin - Stripe) and @BVNKFinance (MC) acquisitions. #USDC's @circle stock down 10% y/day. coindesk.com/business/2026/…
Card issuer processor @Paymentology launches Lume, its new cloud-native issuer processing platform which is designed ground up for rapid localisation by market using single, scalable global technology - a horizontal / vertical 'as a service' API play. paymentology.com/newsroom/payme…
SPACs historically were a way to reduce the regulatory burden and scrutiny of IPO - which has been attractive to some payment companies to avoid fully opening up their books. @SECGov has tightened up now. OpenPayd investor deck appears in Titan 8K on SEC website.
London/Turkey #payments acceptance infrastructure platform @OpenPayd ($240bn TPV, $85m rev) finalising SPAC reverse takeover of US shell co to join @Nasdaq at $1bn valuation. SPAC management had previous with @CardConnect & Paya (since acquired by Nuvei). openpayd.com/announcements/…

Swedish court judgement @Klarna vs Pricerunner has been delayed for a second time - now to June 26th. businesswire.com/news/home/2026…
Bruised by falling valuation, @Klarna will learn in April if record $8.3bn #antitrust lawsuit against @Google has succeeded. #Legal action in #Sweden is based on $1bn 2022 acquisition @PriceRunner, who claim anti competitive treatment in search listings. businesswire.com/news/home/2026…
This is poorly thought through. Long term instalment payments (much higher value) need to promote credit sitewide to aid discovery and affordability checks. The merchant will need to be regulated as a credit broker as Stripe isn't. Checkout wasn't the heavy lifting here.
US checkout finance platform @Affirm takes major step to UK adoption of instalment #credit payment offering after agreeing partnership with @stripe to be offered via Stripe #merchants checkout. Affirm targets longer term retail finance of V12/Novuna etc. investors.affirm.com/news-releases/…

The @Blocks / @Square integration of @CashApp and @AfterpayUSA business units lands new milestone as #BNPL via @CashApp hits general availability - meaning all 59m US wallet & cardholders have access to Monzo Flex style pay later on @Visa purchases. cash.app/press/afterpay…
Startup Dutch embedded #payments platform Embed is acquired by US cross-border infrastructure platform @openfx_ - to obtain European PI licence and UK small EMI license. Curiously Embed was a #merchant / #ISV play & admits pivot to support OpenFX offering. openfx.com/blog/openfx-do…
80+ year old money transfer & #FX giant @MoneyGram is betting on its market scale and liquidity to launch its own USD backed #stablecoin: #MGUSD, powered by @StellarOrg #blockchain. prnewswire.com/news-releases/…
