Form3 provides a complete end-to-end Payments-as-a-Service for financial institutions and regulated fintechs. It allows businesses to offer direct payment services via a simple interface, modernising their payment technology to make it more reliable and secure.
People expect their user experience with financial transactions to be fast and secure. Modern businesses require money to be transmitted instantly, securely, and with the promise of being available worldwide in real time. Form3 has capitalised on this modern demand, offering a comprehensive but straightforward service which gives customers greater control of their payments.
The company's partnerships have been a strong part of its growth strategy, with its technology used by major enterprise including GOldman Sachs, Nationwide and Clarency. Recently, Nationwide Building Society has made a further strategic investment in Form3, alongside a debt facility from BlackRock, supporting the company's path to profitability and continued US expansion.
Form3 has also delivered some new solutions, such as Verification of Payee for European payments provider Mollie, helping clients meet evolving regulatory requirements while strengthening fraud prevention and operational resilience. Backed by leading financial institutions and reporting record performance in 2025, Form3 is sharpening its focus on scaling its cloud-native payments platform across the US and Europe.
