Stanchion’s ongoing innovation legacy

  • Our Establishment

    Stanchion was initially incorporated in 2001, when the growing need for payment solutions at a time of rapid industry change was identified in the marketplace. Initially, the focus was on switch management services, but that soon evolved into also offering payment switch capabilities which meant it acquired its own switch. As the payments landscape grew and evolved, so too did Stanchion, adding development skills to its expanding portfolio.

  • Our Global Footprint

    From 2011, we began growing our global footprint, opening offices first in the Middle East, followed quickly by branches in Europe, the US and APAC. At the same time, Stanchion’s team of experts grew, drawing on talent from around the world to bolster their consulting and services offerings and skills.

  • Our Legacy

    In 2020, Steve Kirrage took over the reins as Global CEO. With his decades of retail and payments industry experience, Steve has continued Stanchion’s legacy of identifying opportunities in the dynamic and changing payments landscape and aligning our offering to meet these changes.

    It is this agility, innate entrepreneurial spirit, and ability to continually adapt and transform services that has enabled Stanchion to retain its standing as a leading global PayTech solution provider in an increasingly competitive space.
