Access PaySuite, the payments division of The Access Group, has acquired the OPEN BANKING infrastructure of Ordo,which was shut down by Neonomics eight months after its January 2025 acquisition, completing Access PaySuite’s proprietary payment acceptance layer across cards, direct debit, and open banking for the 160,000+ organizations served by The Access Group. The deal brings Ordo’s FCA-authorized payment initiation and Variable Recurring Payments (VRP) capabilities in-house, enabling Access PaySuite to combine payment collection with real-time account data for affordability checks, arrears management, and collections, a particularly valuable combination in housing, utilities, and social care verticals. UK open banking processed 351 million payments in 2025, up 57% year-on-year, with more than 16.5 million active users, reflecting the strong tailwinds underpinning the deal.
