The story

allpay Limited is a UK-based payment services company focused on regulated payments, particularly for social housing, local government, and public sector clients. The company has historically served as a bill payment intermediary, operating through major retail networks (Post Office, Payzone, PayPoint) and partnering with Mastercard and Visa. In recent years, allpay has expanded its open banking credentials by publishing a PSD2 API via Salt Edge and launching Confirmation of Payee for cardholders, moving toward a more comprehensive regulated payments infrastructure role.
