What we know

GLOBAL PAYMENTS has agreed to acquire ERSTE CARD in a transaction announced on 5 November 2025. The deal involves the payment processing sector, classified under NaceV2Sector_L_64, though the specific consideration structure and deal value remain undisclosed. No details regarding the target country or the exact legal form of the acquisition have been reported in the available data. The transaction is currently in the review phase, indicating that regulatory authorities are examining the proposed combination of these two entities.

As the deal status remains in review, the completion date is not yet confirmed and no final timeline has been established. The parties have not disclosed the specific financial terms or the method of payment used to facilitate this acquisition. This lack of disclosed valuation suggests that the commercial details may be subject to further negotiation or regulatory conditions before the transaction can be finalised.
