Our Achievements
- Highest Authorization Rate: REPAY secured the first-place spot for the highest authorization rate, reflecting our superior ability to minimize authorization failures unrelated to the issuer, network, or cardholder. It also means we had the lowest percentage of failures in 2024.
- Best Gateway Uptime: We are also proud to share that we have been named the runner-up for the Best Gateway Uptime, highlighting our consistent and dependable service.
REPAY Stood Out Against Global Competition
These awards were based on data from over 20 industry-leading global payment providers in 2024. TSG’s Global Experience Monitoring (GEM) platform powers these awards, benchmarking payment gateway performance by monitoring real card transactions and pings from 35 global locations across North America, South America, and Asia Pacific. Unlike synthetic tests, GEM provides a merchant-focused perspective, helping gateways understand their market position, identify areas of improvement, and address issues real-time.
