Who Are EVO Payments?

Founded in 1989, EVO Payments International began as Merchant Service Inc and dealt with Point Of Sale (POS) terminals and merchant accounts. Renamed as EVO Merchant Services in 2003, and settling on their current name in 2012, the company has constantly expanded and looked to embrace changes in the payment industry. Around $80 billion in payments now pass through their systems in a year, in over 130 currencies within 50 markets worldwide. A number of major financial institutions, including Deutsche Bank, now rely on EVO to provide and facilitate their card acceptance, which is a testament to how far the company has come since 1989.

What Do Evo Payments Do?

Alongside this, the new EVO Snap*API acts as a commerce gateway to access omnichannel payment processing in one place. They deal with payment methods that are not cash based, alongside other elements of payments ranging from accelerated payments to dynamic currency conversions and gift and loyalty programs. Fraud protection is provided via many advanced and sophisticated technologies designed to detect fraud before it occurs, as well as things such as EMV aimed at increasing card data security.

With customers looking to spend online in larger and larger numbers, the acceptance of payment needs to interact as quickly and smoothly as possible with the software the business is using, something EVO is fully aware of and see as a continuing trend. Increasing global reach is also a priority. Their current ability to process payments in many markets across the world, in numerous currencies looks likely to be expanded in attempts to support multi-national companies as fully as possible.
