ProgressSoft Corporation, a leading provider of financial and payment solutions, has been recognized in The Payments Power 50 2026, the annual list from The Power 50 celebrating the companies and industry voices making their mark across the global payments industry.

Now in its second year, The Payments Power 50 recognizes 40 companies and 10 industry influencers making a meaningful contribution to one of the most competitive areas of financial services.

The 2026 list comes at an important moment for payments. Merchants are looking to improve approval rates and customer experience, providers are balancing fraud, resilience and regulation, and banks and fintechs are exploring new ways to support open banking, cross border payments, digital wallets, embedded finance and settlement.

ProgressSoft has been recognized for its role in enabling infrastructure-level payment modernization across complex financial ecosystems, spanning more than 10,000 implementations and 22 central payment infrastructures. Its technologies support over 380 central banks, banks and payment service providers in connecting diverse participants, schemes and channels through secure, interoperable and standards-ready platforms designed to meet national, institutional and cross-border payment requirements without disrupting existing operations.

Commenting on the recognition, Shadi Dababneh, Chief Commercial Officer at ProgressSoft, said: "Financial institutions expect a technology partner who stays ahead of where payments are heading and carries them forward. This is what ProgressSoft has delivered since inception, and exactly what this acknowledgment reflects. As smarter, more adaptive technologies reshape the financial industry, our purpose is unchanged: to turn what comes next into what our partners can rely on today."

Jason Williams, CEO of The Power 50, said: “Payments has always attracted ambition, but the industry is now being judged on delivery. The companies featured in The Payments Power 50 2026 are helping to make money move more safely, quickly and reliably, while supporting the services and infrastructure that modern commerce depends on.
