DataCash was founded in 1997 by Gavin Breeze and Dave MacRae as a limited company to provide outsourced payment services. The company was floated on AIM in March 2000. In 2006 DataCash Group plc (AIM:DATA) acquired ProcCyber Services Ltd and the enlarged group was re-listed on AIM on the 1st June 2006.
Today DataCash has grown to provide Merchants with a global gateway to secure multi-channel payment processing and fraud prevention. Together, the DataCash Group provides Merchants with a fully outsourced solution that addresses all of their Payments and Fraud Needs:
- Payments accepted in any environment: Instore, online, by mobile, by telephone or at an unattended kiosk
- Taking the pain out of industry legislation: 3-D Secure, PCI DSS, CV2 AVS & future developments all anticipated and addressed
- Offering the widest choice of payments options and added value services
- Opening up new demographic and geographic market segments for Merchants with local and international credit cards, eWallets, PayPal, Cash Alternatives, Direct Bank Transfer, Direct Debits and Multi-Currency Options
In 2008 the DataCash Group efficiently processed over 175 million transactions to a value of £16 billion, for over 1000 Merchants from sectors including Retail, Travel, eCommerce, Gaming, Finance, Utilities and Government. Grand National Day 2009 ran seamlessly for DataCash bookmakers, with transactions peaking at around 3700 per minute and total transactions for the day recorded at 1,230,965.
