allpay Becomes First Signatory of Enfuce’s Fortitude Pledge, Leading the Way in Responsible Finance

Amsterdam, London, 5 June – allpay Limited, the UK’s leading payment solutions provider, has become the first company to sign the Fortitude Pledge, a bold new compliance and security standard launched by issuer processing powerhouse Enfuce, designed to eliminate 100% of financial crime risks across all card transactions.
The Fortitude Pledge is a proactive commitment to move beyond checkbox compliance and take full responsibility in the fight against financial crime. From screening every card transaction to training every employee, the Fortitude Pledge sets a new benchmark of zero tolerance for financial crime, including money laundering, terrorist financing, and human trafficking.
This milestone underscores allpay’s dedication to building a fairer, more transparent financial system and marks an important step in the evolution of its strategic partnership with Enfuce.
United by a shared purpose and a commitment to raising the bar for excellence in financial services, allpay and Enfuce have joined forces across two critical fronts, card manufacturing and payment processing, leveraging their combined strengths to deliver secure, scalable, and future-ready solutions across the UK.
By integrating Enfuce’s cloud-based technology, allpay is modernising public sector payments across the UK, making them more secure, efficient, and less vulnerable to fraud. At the same time, allpay is powering card manufacturing and personalisation for Enfuce’s MyCard solution, enabling highly secure, seamless, and personalised card experiences.
Most recently, allpay announced the launch of DOSH, its new direct-to-consumer product designed to deliver a modern, intuitive, and secure financial experience. Supported by Enfuce’s processing capabilities, DOSH will feature in-app authentication, tokenisation, and a dedicated BIN. This is an important undertaking, as DOSH has been expressly designed to support vulnerable adults and those with low financial resilience. This latest initiative represents another milestone in the allpay–Enfuce collaboration, as both companies continue working together to ensure a more secure, inclusive, and transparent financial future.
Monika Liikamaa, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Enfuce says: “We are incredibly proud to welcome allpay as the first signatory of the Fortitude Pledge. This bold step sets a powerful industry standard and sends a clear message: doing the right thing is not only necessary, it’s good business. Together with allpay, we are building a financial system that protects, empowers, and creates a safer world for everyone.”
Denise Johansson, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Enfuce says: “The Fortitude Pledge challenges the status quo by making one thing clear: meeting the minimum is no longer enough. Financial institutions must raise the bar and take proactive responsibility to prevent money-laundering, terrorist financing, and human trafficking. We’re proud to see allpay lead the way, proving that true compliance means protecting people, driving progress, and demanding full accountability.”
Michelle Pacey, Managing Director, at allpay Limited says: “At allpay, integrity, trust and accountability are core to everything we do. Signing the Fortitude Pledge was a natural step in our strategic collaboration with Enfuce and in further demonstrating our commitment to doing business the right way and protecting the people and communities we serve.”
