Midnite Chooses BR-DGE to Optimise Payments and Enable Global Expansion

Midnite, the UK-based sportsbook and casino operator, has selected BR-DGE as its new payments optimisation partner to strengthen its payments infrastructure and support accelerated growth plans. The partnership introduces advanced payment orchestration, expanded payment options, and enhanced operational resilience, underpinning Midnite's efforts to deliver a consistently efficient customer experience while expanding into new markets.

Why Midnite Migrated to Payment Orchestration

Previously, Midnite processed transactions through direct integrations with payment service providers in the UK and Ireland. This approach served the business during its initial phase, but as customer volume and ambitions increased, limitations became apparent. The direct model restricted how easily new payment methods could be launched or entry to new markets achieved. Working with BR-DGE offers an independent orchestration layer that reduces technical debt and increases flexibility for future integrations.

Enhancing the Payments Stack with BR-DGE

The agreement brings several payment features and technology upgrades for Midnite:

• Immediate access to Pay By Bank payments through TrueLayer, enabled by BR-DGE's established connections.
• Ongoing implementation of additional alternative payment methods to suit a wider player base.
• Plans for new PSP connections to address higher transaction volumes and additional market entry requirements.
• Deployment of BR-DGE's smart routing to optimise transaction costs, boost acceptance rates, and ensure high availability for both deposits and withdrawals.
• Use of BR-DGE Vault for centralised tokenisation, ensuring users' stored card details remain valid and portable across processors without checkout disruption.

Payments Optimisation for International Expansion

As Midnite looks beyond its UK and Ireland footprint, the payment setup becomes crucial to enable seamless market entry. BR-DGE's orchestration layer is designed to scale rapidly, so Midnite can add new payment options and connections at speed, matching regulatory and customer preferences in each market. The platform serves gaming merchants across regulated territories including the UK, Ireland, North America, Europe, and Australia, giving Midnite a foundation for global operations.

Jacob Spencer, Chief Revenue Officer at BR-DGE, stated:

"Midnite built a strong platform on a single PSP, which worked well domestically but limited how quickly they could add new payment methods or move into new markets. Moving to an independent orchestration layer mitigates that technical debt in one step, giving Midnite the scalability they need to match their success and ambitions."

Leveraging Data Intelligence and Market Insights

Midnite will benefit from benchmarking and market insights made available through BR-DGE's work with gaming sector clients. These data-driven resources offer actionable recommendations for improving the payment journey, allowing Midnite to balance key metrics such as cost, security, acceptance, and experience. Modelling capabilities provide additional granularity, with performance intelligence based on a broad regulated-market customer base.

Lead Product Manager at Midnite, Christian Huynh, emphasised:

"At Midnite, we want every part of the experience to feel built different, and payments are no exception. We’re focused on creating payment experiences that delight our customers, while building the flexibility to innovate quickly and bring the same great experience to new markets as we grow."

What This Means for Stakeholders

For Midnite, the BR-DGE partnership means a greater ability to adapt to evolving payments preferences and regulatory requirements as it enters new territories. For BR-DGE, adding Midnite strengthens its position as a go-to platform for payment optimisation in the gaming industry. Operators, investors, and platform vendors following payments innovation trends will recognise this deal as another example of orchestration driving competitive advantage for fast-scaling operators.

Next Steps in Midnite's Payments Evolution

The immediate roadmap includes rolling out Pay By Bank alongside traditional and alternative options, growing connections to additional PSPs, and taking advantage of BR-DGE’s smart routing and centralised tokenisation. As international ambitions mature, these foundations will support market launches with tailored payment methods and compliance readiness.

The gaming sector continues to see payment orchestration and optimisation as key enablers for both player satisfaction and operational agility.
