Corpay announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Paymerang, which it calls “a leader in accounts payables automation solutions.” “The acquisition expands Corpay’s presence in four attractive vertical markets: education, healthcare, hospitality and manufacturing. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024, subject to regulatory approval and standard closing conditions. Paymerang adds over 250,000 merchants to Corpay’s existing merchant network of over 1 million vendors, and together the businesses will process $120 billion in annual spend,” the company stated. “This acquisition is right in our wheelhouse and exactly the kind of transaction we find most attractive. It’s a business growing over 20%, within Corporate Payments, where we can accelerate growth and profitability,” said Ron Clarke, chairman and CEO. “It will help us sell more in several large verticals where Paymerang has a strong position with satisfied customers, ERPs and partners.”
