Our take
Payen was founded as Trustpay Global to help clients maximise eCommerce sales revenues and conversion rates. It did this by reducing the number of transactions abandoned at checkout with a service called pinPay.
Renamed as Payen, the company has expanded to provide payment services along with its acquiring service, which gives clients the benefit of cashflow optimisation, greater reliability, low-cost routing, adaptable acceptance improvements, and seamless clearing. Through gaining a high volume of business in payment services, Payen is able to offer competitive rates for customers.
Central to Payen's success has been forging long-term relationships with customers, due in part to its secure, safe, and trusted information security network. The company aim to continue making these connections to find future success.
