emerchantpay and LoopingOne Partner to Digitise High-Value Payments for Motorhome Depot

emerchantpay and LoopingOne have launched a joint payment solution designed to digitise high-value transactions for marketplaces. Motorhome Depot is the first merchant to adopt the integrated workflow, which combines KYC verification and payment processing to enable same-day payouts for sellers in the UK, addressing long-standing friction in complex, high-ticket asset sales.

What was announced

The partnership introduces a streamlined digital transaction journey specifically built for high-value marketplaces. By integrating LoopingOne’s deal flow capabilities with emerchantpay’s global payment infrastructure, the solution brings together Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, payment processing, and funds settlement into a single, unified digital transaction workflow.

Motorhome Depot, which operates a nationwide network of brokers in the UK, is the inaugural merchant to implement the technology. Previously, the marketplace relied on manual payment processes to facilitate sales between sellers and buyers. Under the new system, brokers can manage the entire transaction digitally through the LoopingOne platform, replacing fragmented steps with an integrated journey.

A key feature of the offering is the speed of settlement; the system enables funds to be paid out to the seller on the same day a transaction is successfully completed. While Motorhome Depot is the first to go live with the service in the UK, the joint offering is now available to other businesses and marketplaces across the UK and Europe that handle complex, high-ticket transactions. The collaboration aims to provide greater confidence to participants in large-scale deals by ensuring that verification and payment steps are handled within a secure, automated environment.

"High-value transactions require payment infrastructure that gives every participant confidence while keeping the experience straightforward. Working with Looping One and Motorhome Depot demonstrates how a complex deal can be simplified within one digital journey. This solution is an important milestone and establishes a strong foundation for further shared success. We look forward to extending these capabilities to more businesses with complex, high-value transaction requirements."

The companies involved

emerchantpay is a global payment service provider and acquirer that offers a range of payment solutions to businesses worldwide. The company focuses on providing the infrastructure necessary for complex payment processing, including merchant acquiring and cross-border settlement. With a significant presence in the fintech sector, emerchantpay has established itself as a key player for merchants requiring robust, scalable payment technology and global reach.

LoopingOne operates as a deal flow platform specifically designed to handle high-value transactions. The company’s technology is built to manage the various stages of a complex sale, from the initial deal agreement through to the final settlement of funds. By focusing on the "deal flow" aspect of commerce, LoopingOne addresses the specific needs of marketplaces where transactions are often too large or complex for standard retail payment gateways.

Motorhome Depot, the first user of this joint solution, is Europe’s largest motorhome marketplace. It operates through a broker-led model, connecting private sellers with prospective buyers across the United Kingdom. The integration of this new payment technology represents a shift from traditional, manual brokerage payments toward a fully digital ecosystem for high-ticket leisure assets.

What this means

This partnership highlights a critical shift in the marketplace sector: the move away from "manual-heavy" brokerage towards automated, high-trust digital workflows. While standard e-commerce has long been digitised, high-value assets like motorhomes have remained tethered to slower, riskier payment methods due to the complexity of KYC and the sheer size of the funds involved. By integrating these steps, emerchantpay and LoopingOne are putting pressure on traditional escrow services and manual bank transfers. The move raises questions for the wider industry about how quickly other high-ticket sectors—such as marine or luxury automotive—will be forced to abandon legacy settlement processes to meet modern expectations for same-day liquidity and digital security.
