“Can a Gibraltar/Malta-licensed EMI be the go-to BIN sponsor and program manager for European card-issuing fintechs?”
Transact Payments Limited (TPL), trading as TransactPay, is a Gibraltar-regulated e-money institution that operates as a BaaS/card-issuing BIN sponsor for fintechs across Europe. Its Malta entity (Transact Payments Malta) serves the same role under MFSA authorization and Mastercard licensing — notably issuing the Moss corporate card. The company sits in the program-management and issuing layer of European embedded finance rather than building consumer-facing products.
