Founded in 2000 by Colm Lyon in Dublin, Ireland, Realex Payments grew to become one of Europe's largest and most successful online payment gateways. The company provided a comprehensive suite of services that enabled businesses to accept payments online, processing billions of euros annually for thousands of merchants. In March 2015, Realex Payments was acquired by the US-based payment technology giant Global Payments Inc. for €115 million. Following the acquisition, the Realex Payments brand, technology, and services were integrated into the Global Payments ecosystem, and the company now operates under the Global Payments brand, offering a broader range of payment technology and software solutions to a global customer base.
