Reaching out to you
BB Merchant Services, formerly known as Bankbrokers, is a global organisation specialising in reducing merchant services costs. Also, BB Merchant Services has participated in several historical merchant services class actions. Established in Stockholm in 2008 and headquartered in Oslo, BB Merchant Services has grown internationally, with offices across multiple countries and a client base spanning diverse sectors. With a mission to be the preferred partner for merchants seeking to reduce transaction fees and participate in class actions, BB Merchant Services leverages market expertise, global benchmarking capabilities, and an extensive international network to deliver significant savings.
As your preferred partner and introducer, BB Merchant Services also facilitates access to the substantial UK class action case against Mastercard and Visa, which is focused on excessive multilateral interchange fees (MIFs) on commercial card transactions. Recognising the strength and scope of this case, we have launched a targeted awareness campaign across social media to ensure that eligible businesses do not miss the opportunity to benefit from potential compensation.
For larger organisations (with an average annual turnover of £100 million or more), BB Merchant Services provides a streamlined introduction to senior litigators at Harcus Parker. We arrange a no-cost, no obligation consultation, offering expert guidance through the process to help your business make an informed decision about joining the case.
As the only certified B2B class action in the UK against Mastercard and Visa, this commercial card claim offers an ideal route for businesses to participate without the usual litigation, financing, or insurance burdens.

The claim will now proceed to trial. Opt-in claimants were granted a period of 6 months within which they may opt in. The case is expected to last several years, and we will keep you updated.
