BridgerPay
BridgerPay was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus. It is a payment operations platform rather than an acquirer: its products Bridger Checkout, Bridger Router and Retry sit above more than 500 PSP connectors and handle routing, cascading retries and checkout across Europe and global markets.
Its positioning is resilience for high-risk verticals, with iGaming and forex named as core users. Our source confidence for this provider is medium.
For operators
For casino and sportsbook operators BridgerPay provides access through its connectors to Visa and Mastercard acquiring, Apple Pay and Google Pay, the gambling e-wallets Skrill and Neteller, Interac for Canada, open banking, bank transfer, Bitcoin and USDT. Cascading retries let a declined deposit be automatically resubmitted to the next PSP, and the Router applies rules by country, currency or BIN. Because BridgerPay does not acquire itself, operators still need contracts with the underlying PSPs.
Integration
BridgerPay offers Bridger Checkout, Bridger Router and Retry via an API and an iframe cashier, with more than 500 PSP connectors. Pricing is a SaaS subscription or per-transaction fee on request.
Licences & compliance
BridgerPay lists PCI DSS Level 1 certification. As a payment operations layer it does not hold funds or acquiring licences; the regulatory status that matters sits with the connected PSPs.
- PCI DSS Level 1
Pros

Verdict
BridgerPay suits iGaming and forex operators that run several PSPs and want one checkout with automatic failover and routing without building it themselves. Operators with a single acquirer and simple needs may not justify an additional platform layer.
