About

Leading global payment processor and merchant services provider

Worldpay is a leading global payment processing company that provides merchant services and payment technology solutions to businesses of all sizes. The company enables merchants to accept payments across multiple channels including e-commerce, point-of-sale, and mobile platforms, supporting over 300 payment types across more than 146 countries and 135 currencies. Originally formed through the merger of Worldpay Group and Vantiv in 2018, the company was subsequently acquired by Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) in 2019 for approximately $43 billion, becoming FIS's merchant solutions division. Today, Worldpay operates as a subsidiary of FIS and maintains its brand identity while serving millions of merchants globally. The company provides comprehensive payment processing infrastructure, fraud prevention tools, gateway services, and omnichannel payment solutions. Worldpay serves diverse market segments from small businesses to large enterprises across retail, e-commerce, hospitality, and other industries. While not strictly an AdTech company, Worldpay intersects with the advertising technology ecosystem through its payment processing services for digital advertising platforms, e-commerce merchants, and online marketplaces that rely on seamless payment infrastructure to monetize digital transactions. As part of FIS, Worldpay continues to innovate in payment technology, focusing on unified commerce experiences, alternative payment methods, and embedded finance solutions. The company maintains significant market share in both the U.S. and international payment processing markets, competing with other major processors while leveraging FIS's broader financial technology capabilities.
