Global Payments, together with Google, is fueling the next generation of digital commerce worldwide. This far-reaching partnership will deliver a flexible, scalable digitally-native framework that offers merchant customers of all sizes the leading digital technologies to run and grow a better business.

Global Payments, providing a complete commerce ecosystem of value-added software and payments, combined with Google as a prominent cloud provider, will innovate together to connect merchants to consumers worldwide.

The best of both for merchant customers worldwide

Through our partnership, we will collaborate on innovative, cloud-based product development to support merchant customers worldwide. Both companies are committed to providing the digital tools merchants need to grow and scale quickly. As just one example of the types of enhanced capabilities we will offer together: Global Payments’ value-added software and payments ecosystem will leverage Google’s public APIs including, Google Workspace, Google My Business, and Google Ads, to create a single destination and full spectrum of solutions that merchants need to run and grow their businesses globally.

By combining our capabilities, our merchant customers will easily and seamlessly have access to robust software-as-a-service offerings such as omnichannel ordering, payments, point-of-sale solutions, and rich data and analytics. Merchants can reach their customers with relevant offers and rewards, including loyalty and gift cards, and manage their online presence and reputation. And they can operate their businesses more effectively, access capital to grow, and streamline payrolls.

Laying the foundation for the future

With Google as our merchant solutions cloud provider, we are also furthering our technology-enabled strategies. By moving our acquiring technology workload to Google Cloud, we will maintain the highest level of scalability, reliability, and security while increasing our speed of innovation and ability to seamlessly deploy transaction services on-demand anywhere in the world. Businesses of all sizes are looking to level up their digital transformation for today’s pace to effectively connect with customers worldwide. This partnership makes their digital transformations scalable for the future.

Through a cloud-native operating environment, merchants will be able to reach and engage with their customers faster and more seamlessly and securely than ever.

The result will be better engagement and more loyal, long-term customer relationships. And we’ll be able to better support our merchant customers with quicker innovation.

Global Payments Partner

Today, Google Cloud is a leading infrastructure, platform capabilities and industry solutions provider, helping businesses solve their most critical problems across 150 countries. They have identified our Unified Commerce Platform as uniquely positioned to meet its diverse payment needs globally. We are humbled that Google, one of the world’s largest and most sophisticated cloud technology companies, has confidence in us as their payments provider and has recognized our expertise and record of delivering at scale.

"I am excited about how this partnership provides our merchant customers with an unprecedented and differentiated opportunity to run and grow their businesses more effectively. Equally, as Google’s payments provider, we’re delighted to embark on this transformational journey with them to further enhance our industry-leading commerce ecosystem." - Cameron Bready, President and COO, Global Payments
