Earlier this year, VersaPay was taken over by private equity firm Great Hill Partners.
As per the agreed terms, each VersaPay shareholder was entitled to receive C$2.70 in cash for each common share.
This values VersaPay’s total equity at nearly C$126m on a fully diluted basis.
Great Hill Partners managing partner Matt Vettel said: “This merger accelerates the growth of the Versapay network, further empowering mid-market organisations to digitally transform payables and receivables functions.”
