Yaspa wins PAY360 award for open banking payments initiative

Fintech’s Intelligent Payments platform combines Pay by Bank and AI-driven financial intelligence in a single consented flow.

Yaspa has won Best Payments Initiative in Open Banking at the 2026 PAY360 Awards for its Intelligent Payments platform.

The company said the platform combines real-time Pay by Bank with AI-powered financial intelligence in a single consented payment flow.

The PAY360 recognition follows a series of awards and rankings Yaspa cited from 2026, including Payment Solution of the Year at the SBC Awards in Lisbon last week and a placement as the seventh fastest-growing start-up in Europe in the 2026 Sifted 250.

Earlier this year, Yaspa was named Best Payment Solution Provider at the European iGaming Awards and won two awards at the EGR B2B Awards: AI Solutions Provider and Safer Gambling Supplier. The company also said it was named among CB Insights’ Top 100 Fintechs.

James Neville, CEO of Yaspa, said: “We’re delighted to have been recognised at the PAY360 Awards for our Intelligent Payments platform.

“Intelligent Payments is all about bringing together the power of Open Banking and AI to create a smarter, more seamless payment experience, so it’s fantastic to see the innovation behind the platform recognised by the judges.

“It’s been an incredibly exciting period for Yaspa, with recognition coming from across both the payments and wider technology industries. These awards are a great reflection of the hard work and ambition of the whole team.”
