Description.

Paymentology is a leading global issuer-processor founded in 2015, born from the strategic merger of Tutuka (South Africa) and Paymentology UK in 2021, creating the first truly global card issuing platform. The company provides cloud-native card issuance and processing infrastructure enabling banks, fintechs, telcos, and crypto companies to launch debit, prepaid, credit, and virtual card programs across 50+ countries. With a team of over 450 employees across 60+ countries and 400+ clients globally, Paymentology processes over 1 billion transactions annually across 5 continents. The company became part of Teya in 2023, strengthening its position as a next-generation payments processor. Their platform supports Visa, Mastercard, and UnionPay card networks, offering API-driven infrastructure, BIN sponsoring, tokenization, and PCI-DSS compliant fraud prevention services.

Paymentology has expanded into the crypto infrastructure space through partnerships with Web3 companies, most notably powering Rain—the first-ever Visa credit card for Web3 that enables stablecoin-to-fiat spending in real-time across Latin America and the Caribbean15. This positions Paymentology as a key infrastructure provider for crypto companies seeking to issue physical and virtual cards backed by stablecoins, bridging digital assets with traditional payment rails15. Their crypto-friendly capabilities include real-time crypto-to-fiat transactions, on-chain integration for settlement technology, and global scalability via API-driven infrastructure.
