Recognition in the inaugural ranking reflects OpenPayd’s sustained growth as it builds the universal financial infrastructure for the digital economy
OpenPayd, a leading provider of financial infrastructure, has been recognised among the Financial Times’ UK’s Fastest Growing Companies 2027.
For the first edition of the ranking, the Financial Times and Statista identified 150 independent UK companies with the highest compound annual revenue growth between 2022 and 2025. Statista screened more than 8,000 businesses as potential candidates, with participating companies required to submit verified revenue figures.
Fintech, Financial Services & Insurance was the largest industry group in the ranking, representing 21.3% of the companies recognised. The result reflects the growing role of financial technology and infrastructure businesses in supporting the UK’s digital economy.
Through a single API, OpenPayd enables more than 1,200 businesses to move and manage money globally across traditional finance and digital assets. The company now processes more than $300 billion in annualised payment volume, while continuing to expand its regulatory footprint and financial infrastructure capabilities.
OpenPayd’s inclusion builds on its recognition among CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2026 in the Enterprise Fintech category. Together, the two recognitions underline OpenPayd’s growth and the increasing importance of the infrastructure connecting payment rails, currencies and digital assets.
