Nomupay X SBPS | We’re expanding into Japan

Nomupay secures $40M investment from SB Payment Service Corp. to accelerate global payment expansion

We’re thrilled to announce a major milestone in Nomupay’s journey to becoming the world’s preferred global payments partner. A SoftBank Corp. group company, SB Payment Service Corp. (SBPS), has made a strategic investment in Nomupay in a deal worth $40 million. This marks our largest investment to date and the beginning of a long-term partnership designed to unlock payment access across Asia and beyond.

This partnership isn’t just about capital. The investment reflects strong confidence in our vision and capabilities. It’s about a shared commitment to simplifying global expansion for our customers.

Bridging Japan with the rest of the world and vice versa

SBPS, Japan’s leading payment provider, has been seeking the right partner to support its merchants in expanding globally — without losing control of the customer relationship or navigating the headache of fragmented solutions. After two years of searching, they found that partner in Nomupay.

Through our Unified Payments platform, SBPS merchants can now scale internationally without the burden of managing multiple providers, contracts, integrations and reporting systems. Our single back office and API bring clarity and efficiency to what has traditionally been a complex and costly endeavour.

For Nomupay, the partnership provides a powerful opportunity to solidify our presence in Japan, a critical but often challenging market to access. SBPS brings deep domestic reach, embedded payments capabilities and access to carrier billing through one of Japan’s top telecom groups. Together, we’re making bi-directional commerce between Japan, the rest of Asia and the wider world easier than ever.

A partnership built on shared ambition

Both Nomupay and SBPS are laser-focused on solving the complexity of cross-border payments. This partnership reflects a mutual belief that merchants don’t just need better acquiring; they need a full-service platform that handles payment acceptance, treasury and payouts, while also providing localised checkout experiences and compliance out of the box.

As Peter Burridge, CEO of Nomupay, puts it:
“This partnership allows us to double down on our mission to simplify access to complex, high-growth markets and to power commerce both into and out of Asia through a single, scalable infrastructure.”

Jun Shimba, President and CEO of SBPS, shared:
“Nomupay’s reach and flexibility make them an ideal partner. Together, we’re building a more connected, cashless future across the region.”

What’s Next?

With SBPS’s support, Nomupay will continue to enhance our platform by expanding payment method coverage, launching in new countries and deepening the tools available to merchants. This is a pivotal step in our journey to become the world’s preferred global payments partner and a trusted ally for enterprises looking to grow globally with confidence.

We look forward to sharing more about what this partnership will enable in the months ahead. For now, we’re proud to be writing the next chapter of Nomupay’s story — together with SBPS.
