PAYSTRAX shortlisted for Fintech Scale-up of the Year at the Fintech Awards London 2026

PAYSTRAX has been shortlisted for Fintech Scale-up of the Year at the Fintech Awards London 2026!

These awards bring together the UK fintech community to recognise companies, products and people shaping the industry across areas such as PayTech, RegTech, WealthTech, InsurTech, digital assets, AI, and more. This year’s shortlist includes 17 categories, with Fintech Scale-up of the Year sponsored by EY.

Being shortlisted in this category is a meaningful recognition of how PAYSTRAX has grown – not only in size, but in strength, stability and market presence.

A closer look at our growth

PAYSTRAX launched its acquiring services in 2021 and reached breakeven within six months. Since then, the company has continued to scale while remaining organically funded.

Over the past few years, we’ve seen strong growth across several key areas:

✅ Revenue growth

✅ Transaction volume increase

✅ Team grew from 2 people in 2019 to more than 150 by 2026

✅ Our footprint expanded to 6 offices: Vilnius, Klaipėda, Reykjavik, London, Leeds and Malta.

What makes this especially important to us is that this growth has been achieved organically, without external funding. In a market where scale-up stories are often linked to capital raises, PAYSTRAX has grown by building sustainably, staying focused on operational discipline, and continuously investing in our people, technology and merchant relationships.

The ceremony

Winners of the Fintech Awards London 2026 will be announced on 18 June at the awards ceremony in London, so stay tuned for more news!
