International commercial law firm Hill Dickinson has advised the shareholders of merchant services and bespoke payment processing solution provider Total Processing on its acquisition by NomuPay, a leading end-to-end payment platform dedicated to facilitating international expansion.
Total Processing was co-founded by Jean-Michel Soopramanien, Alex Leigh, Cameron Lee and Matt Hamer in 2015. It provides customer payment solutions across online and in-store channels to merchants worldwide with scalable and bespoke technology. Based in Manchester, Total Processing expanded its operations to the Middle East opening an office in Dubai in 2021.
Dublin-based NomuPay was established in 2021 and this latest acquisition will enable it to accelerate its business expansion efforts throughout Southeast Asia, Europe, Turkey as well as the Middle East. The move will allow Total Processing to innovate tech faster, expand into new markets, enhance its product offering and bring even greater value to its merchants.
Partner David Mkhitarian led on the transaction with senior associate Graeme Anderson and associate Joel Bailey of Hill Dickinson’s Manchester Corporate team.
David commented: “We’re delighted to have supported our client, Total Processing, on becoming part of the NomuPay group. Both companies have a shared dedication to delivering an exceptional merchant experience, with their new partnership offering exciting growth opportunities. We congratulate them as they embark on this next chapter.”
Robert Pailin, Total Processing’s CEO, said: “Having NomuPay’s acquiring capabilities underpinning our merchant servicing offering is a big leap forward, we’re aligned in our customer-first approach, and this partnership will supercharge Total Processing’s growth.”
NomuPay CEO Peter Burridge said: “What impressed me the most was the team’s mission and drive to become the ‘most customer focused payments business in the world’; it’s apparent at every stage of the value chain.”
