Payapps, an Autodesk company and one of the UK’s leading suppliers of automated application for payment software, saw off strong competition to be ‘Highly Commended’ in the prestigious Payment Technology award category at this year’s Global Fintech Awards.
In what was its first year competing for the award, the company was recognised as one of the most impactful and innovative financial technology organisations at an awards ceremony, held at 155 Bishopsgate in London on Tuesday October 7th 2025.
The Payment Technology Award particularly shines a spotlight on payment solutions that improve speed, security and user satisfaction while adapting to trends and strong fraud prevention measures.
Easier to use and more accurate than the traditional manual method of spreadsheets and emails, Payapps provides contractors and subcontractors from across the construction industry with innovative and reliable software to streamline the application for payment process.
Entirely cloud-based, Payapps makes all information easily accessible online, enhancing collaboration and transforming the entire application for payment process for contractors and subcontractors alike. While automating and streamlining the workflows associated with the submission and assessment of construction applications for payment, this software integrates with popular construction ERP and accounting systems for further finance-related efficiencies.
With the construction industry currently facing skills shortages and a requirement to meet increasingly tight deadlines and budgets, utilising automated software to expedite the application for payment process is crucial.
Chloe Leigh, Head of Marketing for UK and Ireland at Payapps, suggested the commendation from the Global Fintech Awards was the reward for the talented and determined Payapps staff. She said: “We are absolutely delighted to have been highly commended in the Payment Technology Award category. Payapps was up against some incredibly strong competition and it is testimony to the team’s outstanding innovation and drive to improve the application for payment process that we were recognised in this way.
“To be highly commended in our first year of submitting an entry is something we’re incredibly proud of. It was a superb evening and we’d like to congratulate all the winners and those shortlisted for some absolutely outstanding entries.”
