Bambora, formerly IP Payments, is a PCI Level 1 compliant financial services organisation that provides payments, accounts receivable automation and PCI DSS compliance solutions.[1] IP Payments operates in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
IP Payments is listed on the Asia Pacific Deloitte Fast 500.[2]

History[edit]

IP Payments was founded in 2004[3] by Jamie Collins, Mark Lewis and Anthony Fulton. The company provides customised accounts receivable, payments and PCI DSS compliance solutions. The company services over 3500 enterprises including global organisations.[4]

In August 2015, IP Payments was acquired by Swedish payments group Bambora,[5] which had been founded by Johan Tjärnberg the previous year.[6] Two years later, Bambora was acquired by Ingenico Group of France,[7] which subsequently merged with Worldline in late 2020.[8]

Services[edit]

Bambora offers services which customise and automate existing account receivables operations, including third-party software the client might use, as well as merchant level 1 PCI DSS compliance solutions and payment gateways to clients who process credit card transactions.[4]

Bambora services include multiple payment methods (credit card, charge card, direct debit, direct credit, BPay and Over-the-Counter) across multiple payment channels (Internet, mobile, PS3, call centre, batch and recurring) utilising multiple payment types (purchase, refund, pre-auth and completion).[9]

In September 2012, Bambora (then IP Payments) released a study of PCI compliance in Australia[10]
