History
Nuvei, formerly Pivotal Payments, was established in 2003 by Philip Fayer.[6] Fayer founded the company while taking some time off from attending Concordia University.[6] The company offered electronic payment processing and merchant services for point of sale and online businesses.[6] Since its founding, Nuvei has expanded significantly, acquiring clients and other similar operations through acquisitions.[6]
In 2006, the company received an investment from Goldman Sachs totaling CA$60 million to fund its acquisition strategy.[6]
In September 2017, Montreal-based private equity firm Novacap and the public pension fund manager Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec announced a joint investment in the company. During the funding series, the two investment firms valued the company at CA$525 million (US$424 million).[7]
In August 2019, Nuvei completed its acquisition of SafeCharge for CA$1.1 billion (US$889 million), based on the price of US$5.55 for each SafeCharge share, representing a 25% premium to the London-listed company's stock.[8][9]
In September 2020, the company raised US$700 million in the largest technology initial public offering to date on the Toronto Stock Exchange.[10]
In November 2020, Nuvei completed the acquisition of Smart2Pay as part of a drive to strengthen its presence in high-growth digital commerce verticals.[11] A month later in December 2020, Nuvei announced it was acquiring Base Commerce, a payment processing company specializing in bankcard and ACH payment processing.[12]
In August 2021, Nuvei completed the acquisition of payment provider Mazooma, a transaction to expand its portfolio of North American payment options, with instant bank-to-bank payments for pay-ins and payouts, as well as real time payments for accelerated withdrawals.[13] In September 2021, Nuvei acquired payments company Paymentez to expand in Latin America.[14]
In October 2021, Nuvei filed for an IPO on Nasdaq.[15]
Nuvei's annual results for the 12 months to the end of December 2021 published in March 2022 showed the combined organization processes over $95 billion in annual transaction volume from clients across the globe.[16]
In January 2023, Nuvei announced that it plans to buy Nasdaq-listed competitor Paya Holdings Inc. for approximately US$1.3-billion.[17]
On April 17, 2023, Nuvei announced an investment from Hollywood actor and investor Ryan Reynolds.[18]
On April 1, 2024, it was announced that Advent International had agreed to buy Nuvei for $6.3 billion in an all-cash deal, taking it private.[19]
