Irish Bank PTSB Taps Worldpay to Support its Commercial Operations

Irish Bank PTSB extended its agreement with Worldpay® to provide merchant services for the bank’s commercial customers. Building on the bank’s existing suite of payments solutions, PTSB customers will now have access to additional services from Worldpay, including e-commerce and ePOS, as part of the extended partnership.

Worldpay’s e-commerce platform allows businesses to trade online globally while Worldpay ePOS is a new, fully inclusive POS & integrated payment solution. The bank will also have access to Worldpay DCC, a Dynamic Currency Conversion solution that provides cardholders the choice to pay in their preferred currency.

Ireland’s e-commerce market is expected to grow at a 9% CAGR through 2027 to be worth $18bn,  according to the 2024 Global Payments Reportfrom Worldpay. Use of digital wallets is also set to increase, growing from 30% to 43% of online spend and 14% to 29% at point of sale over the same period. Merchants who tap into advanced payments technology are able to get ahead of these trends while delivering the fresh experiences that consumers expect.

To help Irish businesses meet the growing need for advanced payments solutions, PTSB will utilise Worldpay to expand its merchant services offering.

“To achieve our ambition of becoming Ireland’s best personal and business bank through exceptional customer experiences, it is vital for PTSB to offer a best-in-class merchant services solution to both existing and new customers,” said Jeff Harbourne, Head of Personal Banking at PTSB. “By partnering with Worldpay, we’re offering a competitive advanced payments solution to our existing and new customers that enables them to grow their businesses and accept payments across all channels.”
