FIS Completes Issuer Solutions Deal, Pays $7.7B

Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) completed its previously announced acquisition of the Issuer Solutions business from Global Payments on January 9, 2026. The transaction was executed through FIS’s acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in the Purchased Entity.

As consideration, FIS sold its remaining equity interests in Worldpay to Global Payments and paid approximately $7.7 billion in cash, representing the excess of the Issuer Solutions purchase price over the Worldpay purchase price. The purchase prices were based on enterprise valuations of $13.5 billion for Issuer Solutions and $24.25 billion for Worldpay, subject to customary post-closing adjustments.

FIS will include the Issuer Solutions business in its consolidated results from the acquisition date and will no longer recognize its equity method investment in Worldpay.
