The rapidly expanding payments orchestration platform received the honor at the Card and Payments Awards in London on Thursday, February 5th, 2026.

Paysecure, a top global payment orchestration platform, is excited to reveal it received the Best Payments Industry Newcomer Award at the 2026 Card and Payment Awards.

The judges commented: “The panel noted that the submission demonstrated strong partnerships and showcased impressive growth trajectories. Its orchestration capability enabled broad access to alternative payment methods and was designed to address complex, high-risk, high-volume environments. Overall, Paysecure demonstrated reliable growth and enhanced technical capabilities, laying a firm foundation for ongoing impact and showing clear potential for broader industry contribution.”

Amit Hooja, CEO at Paysecure, shared: “This award is a strong validation of the platform we’ve built and the problem we set out to solve. I would like to thank all our staff, our partners and, of course, our customers for their support and dedication in helping to build the

leading orchestration platform. There’s still work to do. Payments are becoming increasingly complex for businesses operating across borders. Payment choice, regulation and ever-increasing competition for customers are all evolving challenges. Our continued focus is to give our customers the best infrastructure at the very best cost.”

Established in May 2022, Paysecure was developed to address significant payment issues in high-risk, high-volume, and regulated sectors. Currently, it serves as a key component in the payments ecosystem, integrating intricate and varied systems to provide merchants with a comprehensive perspective of their payment process, allowing them to expand into innovative and dynamic markets, while reducing fraud and improving the overall customer experience.

The accolade comes after Paysecure recently announced a five-fold rise in the number of merchants utilizing its technology. Its orchestration platform currently links merchants with over 500 PSPs/acquirers and more than 200 alternative payment methods globally. By utilizing smart routing, tokenisation, fraud protection through User Trust Score, real-time analytics, and a flexible Cashier, Paysecure enables merchants to increase acceptance, optimize conversion, cut costs, enhance resilience, and provide smooth, tailored customer experiences.

Viktoriia Degtiarova, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer at Paysecure, said: “We built the Paysecure platform from the ground up. Every feature, every capability exists because our team deeply understands the real challenges merchants and partners face and we refuse to settle for average solutions. Being recognised in London is a huge moment for us. Our global teams, and especially our incredible colleagues in India, are proud to celebrate this achievement. This award belongs as much to our partners and clients as it does to us; their trust pushes us to keep raising the bar.”
