Dear customers, dear colleagues,
OpenWay is a recognised leader in the payment processing domain with many offices around the world. While our focus is on technology, we also care about maintaining high standards of compliance processes and corporate social responsibility.
Considering the current geopolitical situation, OpenWay Group decided to sell its Russian subsidiary, OpenWay Service. The sale was completed in April 2022. As of today, OpenWay Group has no more business in Russia.
Some of the former Russian subsidiary employees relocate to other OpenWay Group companies. As a true multinational company and a responsible employer, we do not tolerate any discrimination on any ground such as gender, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin. We treat all our staff as family members wherever they come from.
We care about our customers, we care about our people.
Thank you for your trust and confidence in OpenWay.
Update of July 2, 2022
In the past, like many global IT companies, we worked with several financial institutions in Russia through our local fully-owned subsidiary. As communicated earlier, we left the country following the sale of the subsidiary back in April 2022. We no longer support these financial institutions nor make any new sales to them.
Neither legally nor technically can we stop former customers from using the software, which they purchased in the past, installed and operate on their own infrastructure. However, starting April 2022, OpenWay does not sell any software nor support any clients in Russia.
Update from January 30, 2023
Atos, Société Générale, OpenWay, and Thales are among the payment-oriented companies on the list of 120 western brands that have divested from Russia.
The list is part of the analytic research conducted by two independent Swiss academic institutions – University of St. Gallen and International Institute for Management Development (IMD).
