Global Payments + Shuttle

Global Payments is one of the world’s largest payment technology companies, and completed its acquisition of Worldpay in January 2026. It offers a broad platform that spans merchant acquiring and vertical-specific commerce solutions for education, restaurants, and retail. Its scale gives it competitive pricing, deep banking relationships, and the infrastructure to support businesses ranging from single-location merchants to multinational enterprises. Global Payments’ combination of acquiring reach and vertical expertise makes it one of the most comprehensive payment partners available.

Shuttle integrates with Global Payments, so platforms can connect their merchants’ own Global Payments accounts through the same integration they use for other processors. Merchants on Global Payments get its domestic acquiring in the markets it covers. Shuttle’s Voice Checkout flows can be processed through Global Payments, with cards tokenized by Global Payments, and Links Checkout and embedded payment forms can use it for card processing too.

For platforms that need to process payments at scale across multiple geographies, accessing Global Payments through Shuttle provides a foundation of reliable, high-volume processing that can be augmented with specialist processors for specific use cases. A platform might put most of its merchants on Global Payments for its competitive pricing and broad coverage, while using a regional specialist for specific markets or a niche processor for particular payment methods. Shuttle makes this multi-layered processing strategy operational without requiring the platform to build separate integrations, and returns transaction and refund data from every processor in one format.
