The payment group, which has an office in Malta, received several employee-recognition awards, including one of the top 30 Financial Services firms to work for in the UK, as well as regional awards in London and Wales. It also received a One Star rating signifying “very good” levels of workplace engagement, it announced.

Trust Payment CEO Daniel Holden commented: “Talented people, properly engaged are at the heart of our culture. I’m extremely proud of our successes in 2020, but most important our people”.

“They have created a culture of passion and energy; a desire to put customers first and an innovation hub which has challenged traditional workspaces. This has been even more impressive given the exceptional challenges all companies have faced in 2020. The future of UK fintech is bright at Trust Payments”, he added.

The Group was awarded three accolades in the 2021 Best Companies to Work For list, namely: one of Financial Services’ 30 Best Companies to Work For, one of London’s Top 75 large companies to work for, and one of Wales’ Top 30 Companies to work for.
