Atoa is Now ISO 27001 Certified — Raising the Bar for Payment Security

We’re thrilled to share that Atoa is now ISO 27001 certified — the globally recognised standard for information security management.

This milestone underscores our commitment to protecting customer data and delivering secure, compliant payment solutions to businesses across the UK.

What is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 isn’t just a badge. It means we’ve embedded security into every part of how we operate, from the way we handle sensitive data to how we build and deliver features at Atoa. Organisations that meet these standards undergo extensive audits by independent bodies to prove their systems and controls are up to scratch.

Why this matters to our customers

Security and trust are foundational to everything we do at Atoa. Whether you’re a law firm, automotive dealership, or staffing agency, we know that protecting your data — and your customers’ — is non-negotiable.

Achieving ISO 27001 certification brings three clear benefits to our clients:

• Trust. Our merchants can feel confident knowing Atoa meets the highest security standards globally.
  
  
• Streamlined onboarding. For larger clients with stricter compliance requirements, ISO 27001 helps simplify vendor approval and due diligence processes, making the onboarding experience seamless.
  
  
• It shows our commitment to doing things right. Security isn’t just a checkbox — it’s something we consider our highest priority every day. 

A milestone, not the finish line

While this certification is a proud moment for our team, it’s just one step in our journey. We’re constantly evolving how we secure, monitor, and improve our systems — and ISO 27001 is the framework that helps keep us accountable as Atoa scales.

Our merchants rely on Atoa not just to help them save on fees or improve their cash flow, but to deliver a payment experience they can trust. ISO 27001 strengthens the foundation we’re building on — and raises the bar for what businesses should expect from their payment providers.
