Recognition for Real-World Utility and Cross-Border Impact
The award acknowledges Ripple’s tangible progress in deploying blockchain solutions that address real-world financial challenges, particularly the inefficiencies in global payment systems.
Ripple’s technology allows for instant, low-cost international transfers using its digital asset infrastructure, which has been steadily integrated into banking and fintech operations across Europe and other regions.
Craddock emphasized that the recognition validates Ripple’s long-standing commitment to innovation and collaboration within the regulated payments sector.

A Team and Partner Effort
Craddock extended gratitude to Ripple’s clients, partners, and industry peers, including category sponsor Thunes Payments, for contributing to Ripple’s success and growth in the digital payments ecosystem.
“Thanks to our clients, partners, and industry peers, including category sponsor Thunes Payments, all of whom have helped us get to where we are today,” she added. “A massive shoutout to my superb colleagues in the UK and Europe who are working tirelessly to build the future of finance. This recognition is for you!”
Ripple Strengthens Its Position in Europe’s Fintech Landscape
Ripple’s win at the PAY360 Awards further cements its standing as a key player in Europe’s evolving fintech landscape. The company has made significant strides in strengthening relationships with financial institutions, expanding its On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) product, and aligning with regional regulatory frameworks.
With Europe taking a leading role in shaping global digital asset regulation, Ripple’s growing influence across the continent signals its readiness to operate at the intersection of traditional finance and blockchain innovation.
The PAY360 award marks another milestone in Ripple’s journey to bring real-world blockchain applications to mainstream finance. The recognition from The Payments Association adds to a series of achievements that reflect Ripple’s global momentum — and its continuing push to redefine how money moves around the world.
