. According to a Business Wire release republished by Crypto-Reporter, the award highlights the increasing need for preventative controls as attackers employ tactics such as vendor impersonation, synthetic identities and AI-assisted social engineering.
Industry observers note that regulatory changes are raising the bar for payment verification. The release referenced forthcoming Nacha account-verification requirements for 2026 and broader compliance expectations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, arguing that these developments make robust, auditable controls a business priority as much as a legal one. The company said in a statement that its platform embeds automated bank-account validation and supplier verification into procurement and treasury workflows to catch risks before payments are made.
Trustpair claims more than 500 enterprise customers and says its validation network spans over 190 countries, with integrations into major enterprise suites including SAP, Coupa, Ivalua, Oracle and Kyriba. The vendor presented its product as a protective layer that enforces consistent global controls without forcing organisations to adopt parallel processes or replace existing systems.
“AI-driven fraud is evolving faster than traditional controls,” said Baptiste Collot, co-founder and CEO of Trustpair. “Winning ‘Procure-to-Pay Software of the Year’ confirms what we see every day with our clients: Prevention must be embedded, global and automated. Our ambition is clear: to set the zero-fraud standard for enterprise payments.”
Steve Johansson, managing director of FinTech Breakthrough, explained the judges’ rationale by pointing to the platform’s approach to verification within procurement workflows. “Trustpair embeds secure validation directly into existing procurement workflows so that companies no longer need to switch platforms or adopt parallel processes. That makes Trustpair our choice for ‘Procure-to-Pay Software of the Year,’” he said.
The award comes amid a broader market focus on identity and verification technologies. According to FinTech Breakthrough’s FAQ, winners for the 2026 programme were publicly announced on 19 March 2026, and entries were judged on criteria including innovation, performance and market impact. Past awardees in adjacent categories include AU10TIX, recognised in 2025 for identity-as-a-service, and Pipefy, which won a procure-to-pay category in 2023, illustrating how vendors have specialised around verification, workflow automation and fraud resilience over recent years.
Analysts say the shift from reactive detection to preventive architecture is driven by both faster payment rails and more complex, multinational supplier ecosystems. Preventing fraud at onboarding and maintaining continuous monitoring can reduce costly incident response and remediation, they argue, but achieving that at scale requires dependable data sources, identity intelligence and deep systems integration.
Trustpair frames itself as fraud-prevention infrastructure for modern P2P processes rather than a narrow data provider. The company highlighted its New York, Paris and London presence and described its mission as moving enterprises from reactive incident management to proactive financial resilience.
Tech Breakthrough LLC, the parent organisation behind the FinTech Breakthrough Awards, notes that award recognition represents its opinion of standout solutions and does not constitute an endorsement. The FinTech Breakthrough programme has steadily expanded its remit to cover payments, RegTech and AI in finance, reflecting growing demand for technologies that combine compliance, user experience and automated risk controls.
