About Wpay

We help complex businesses grow by turning transactions into experiences.

One billion transactions, one trusted name

Wpay is a payments experience company built around how people shop.

Born within Woolworths Group, we’re Australia’s largest non-bank acquirer, processing 1.5+ billion transactions annually.*

But we’re more than numbers – we’re about making payments effortless.

Because when transactions feel seamless, they stop being transactions. They become experiences.
