Midnite partners with BR-DGE to add Pay By Bank and speed up payments expansion

Midnite has partnered with BR-DGE to strengthen its payments stack as the UK sportsbook and casino operator pushes for faster expansion. The immediate headline is access to TrueLayer’s Pay By Bank through BR-DGE, plus a cleaner path to new payment methods and PSPs without rebuilding the checkout every time.

  1. Before this deal, Midnite was running direct integrations with payment providers in the UK and Ireland. That setup worked while the business was getting off the ground, but the operator says rapid growth and expansion plans meant payments had to move faster to match the rest of the app.
  2. BR-DGE is now providing an orchestration layer for Midnite’s pay-ins and payouts, with the stated goals of improving resilience, acceptance, uptime, and cost performance. In practice, that means routing payments through a platform built for gaming and sports betting rather than stitching every new method into the stack by hand.
  3. Midnite has already brought in TrueLayer’s Pay By Bank payments through BR-DGE’s existing connectivity, with further alternative payment methods already in the implementation phase. BR-DGE also said it will support additional payment options as Midnite moves into new markets.
  4. More PSP connectivity is also on the way through BR-DGE. The platform’s smart routing tools will be used to optimise deposits and withdrawals across costs, acceptance rates, and uptime, while BR-DGE Vault will centralise tokenisation so stored card details remain portable across processors without re-tokenising players.
  5. BR-DGE says it will also provide gaming-specific performance benchmarking and market insights based on its merchant base across regulated markets including the UK, Ireland, North America, Europe and Australia. For a merchant like Midnite, that matters because payment decisions are not just about adding methods; they are about which routes hold up as volumes, geographies, and regulatory requirements change.

Jacob Spencer, Chief Revenue Officer at BR-DGE, said Midnite’s previous single-PSP setup worked domestically but limited how quickly it could add new payment methods or move into new markets. The point of an independent orchestration layer, in his telling, is to remove that technical debt in one step and give the operator room to scale without rebuilding the payments stack each time.
