RS2 Smart Processing has partnered with PXP Financial to launch end-to-end managed acquiring services and card scheme processing through RS2’s BankWORKS platform. The collaboration brings together RS2’s global payment processing capabilities with PXP’s omnichannel payment infrastructure to deliver comprehensive acquiring solutions for merchants and financial institutions.
The managed service will streamline card payment acceptance and processing operations, allowing clients to leverage enterprise-grade infrastructure without maintaining in-house systems. This partnership addresses growing demand for flexible, scalable payment processing as transaction volumes continue rising across digital and physical channels.
The announcement comes as the payments industry increasingly shifts toward outsourced managed services, with providers seeking to reduce operational complexity and accelerate time-to-market. Both RS2 and PXP are positioning themselves to capture market share in the competitive acquiring services sector, where margins face pressure from evolving regulation and technology requirements.
