Payments processing firm OmniPay is creating 30 jobs at its headquarters in Clonskeagh in Dublin.

This brings its workforce to almost 200. 

The company was founded in Dublin in 2000 and currently employs 165 staff.

It wants to develop and extend its global payments processing platform.

The platform currently processes more than one billion transactions on behalf of 31 merchant acquiring banks and payment processors worldwide.

OmniPay is owned by US financial services firm First Data, which first invested in the company in 2002.

OmniPay CEO and co-founder of OmniPay Hubert O'Donoghue said: "This announcement is not only great news for OmniPay, but also for the burgeoning payments industry in Ireland.

"OmniPay delivers one of the world’s largest single global payments infrastructure, managing more than a billion payments annually. Each new hire will be joining a business that is perfectly positioned for sustained international growth."

IDA Ireland's Chief Executive Barry O’Leary pointed out that Ireland is rapidly becoming one of the world’s leading locations for companies in the payment’s industry.

He said: "Companies in the payments industry locate here to gain access to our technological infrastructure as well as our talented graduates.

"The growing number of payment’s companies locating in Ireland comes as a result of the IDA’s strategy to focus on targeting particular industries and creating 'clusters'."
