The Ministry of Justice is planning to tender a contract for Payment In Solution and Direct Debit Services, with an estimated value of £2,500,000. Classified under banking services and targeting the financial and insurance services sector, the procurement involves facilitating in-person cash and debit card payments alongside Direct Debit services for various financial impositions and aid contributions. The contract is expected to cover the entire UK, with a potential duration of 5 years. The procurement is at the planning stage and calls for interested parties to express interest by 3 pm on 25th February 2026, with the tender proceeding via the Crown Commercial Service Dynamic Purchasing System - RM6322.
