**Global Processing Centre (**[GPC](https://globalprocessingcentre.com/)**<https://globalprocessingcentre.com/>), one of the largest payments processors in Latin America and the Caribbean, and Compass Plus Technologies, an international provider of retail banking and electronic payments software, are celebrating 10 years of successful collaboration.**

GPC’s journey with Compass Plus Technologies started in 2012, when the processor embarked on a project to migrate away from its legacy system to launch a modern, scalable issuing and acquiring payments platform to better serve financial institutions (FIs) in Latin America and the Caribbean. This was to help GPC meet its strategic vision to facilitate a strong financial ecosystem and payment architecture, and provide convenient, secure and modern payment services to FIs in the region. Impressively, the migration of the processor’s entire card base and POS terminal network was completed in just three months.

Since then, GPC and Compass Plus Technologies have worked together over the past decade to deliver many exciting projects including:

- Multiple integrations with third parties such as Western Union to support prepaid card loading
- Enabling in-branch instant card issuance
- Supporting Fintech customers by offering them [TranzAxis](https://compassplustechnologies.com/tranzaxis.html) in a Platform as a Service capacity in order to launch innovative products at speed
- Launching SugaPay, a local payment ecosystem consisting of reloadable cards, POS terminals and a mobile wallet, which facilitated card payment acceptance for small businesses at large-scale entertainment events in Antigua
- Enabling Mastercard, Visa and UnionPay POS acquiring for merchants
- Supporting GPC’s expansion into the Canadian Independent ATM deployer (IAD) market, with acquiring services for Visa, Mastercard and Canadian Interac

Today, Compass Plus Technologies empowers GPC to deliver premium payment processing solutions globally to retail ATM operators, financial institutions and Fintechs across the Caribbean, Latin America and Canada, processing over 700,000 transactions monthly.
