## Summary

The North Yorkshire Council procured a prepaid card service for its Court of Protection and Migrant Programmes teams. The cards enable authorised expenses for vulnerable people across North Yorkshire, supporting their autonomy and financial inclusion. This is a financial transaction processing and banking service, rather than a purchase of card products alone: the requirement is to provide a solution through which the council can administer and facilitate those payments. The service relates to the council’s work with vulnerable individuals and is delivered across North Yorkshire. The procurement was arranged as a further competition under the Government Commercial Agency’s Payment Solutions 2 framework.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to allpay Limited. The council used a further competition under the Payment Solutions 2 framework, with price as the stated award criterion; two bids were recorded. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and has an awarded value of £130,390. One lot covered the prepaid card solution. The lot record describes an optional 12-month extension. The recorded lot status is cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; no cancellation of the award or termination of the contract is recorded. The procurement used a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice, through the framework competition.

This award shows demand from North Yorkshire Council for a managed prepaid card solution that can support authorised spending by vulnerable people through its Court of Protection and Migrant Programmes teams. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate reliable payment processing and card administration, with controls that enable expenses to be authorised and support delivery of the council’s service. Experience serving public-sector programmes and users who may need additional support would be relevant to showing that the solution can work in this setting. The council selected through a price-led competition among suppliers on the Payment Solutions 2 framework, so framework access and the ability to provide a competitive priced solution are central to competing for this specific requirement when it returns to market.
