“Can a single payment orchestration API become the default routing and acquirer-connectivity layer for large global enterprise merchants?”
Founded in 2016 as a payment orchestration platform, APEXX Global built a single-API connection hub for enterprise merchants to access 200+ acquirers, 150+ alternative payment methods, and intelligent routing/cascading logic. In 2021 the company expanded beyond card payment routing into BNPL aggregation with the launch of BNPL Connect, positioning itself as a broader alternative payments aggregator for enterprise and PSP clients. The company operates as infrastructure rather than a direct merchant acquirer, differentiating on dynamic routing, smart split, and revenue protection features for large global merchants such as TUI Group.
Apexx processes payments through APEXX Global (self-operated).
