Exclusive: Wirecard UK to be bought by Railsbank after downfall of parent company

Sifted

“Disgraced German payment group Wirecard has found a buyer for its UK division in competitor Railsbank, Sifted has confirmed. Wirecard announced in June that it was unable to locate $2bn worth of cash in its trust accounts, causing the company once valued at $13bn to collapse into bankruptcy. As a result, German administrators were called in to sell off key assets like its UK entity, Wirecard Card Solutions (WCS), which once settled card payments for 70 fintech clients including Revolut, Pockit, Soldo and Curve.”
