Case Study: CMC Markets achieves a 4% acceptance boost with Checkout.com

Actionable payments data fuels an unrivaled trader experience for CMC Markets

CMC Markets, a global online multi-asset trading platform, needed a more reliable and intelligent payments partner to support always-on trading and improve card acceptance across multiple regions. As it modernized its payment stack, it sought better gateway reliability, deeper transaction visibility, and tools to reduce false declines. Vendor Checkout.com was selected to support this shift with services including acquiring, the Unified Payments API, Intelligent Acceptance, Network Tokens, and Pay to Card.

With Checkout.com, CMC Markets consolidated its payments flow into a single integration and gained better reporting, settlement, and optimization capabilities across APAC and other regions. The result was a 4% uplift in acceptance rates and more than £1 million in annualized savings, alongside faster payouts and improved client experience.
