Bumper named amongst Europe’s fastest growing companies
Bumper has been named in the FT1000: Europe’s Fastest-Growing Companies 2026, for the sixth year in a row.
The automotive fintech ranks at number 36 in the Fintech, Financial Services & Insurance category of the Financial Times’ prestigious list of Europe’s fastest-growing companies – and number 328 overall.
The inclusion comes after a year of impressive growth for Bumper, which last year expanded its suite of payment products with the launch of the UK’s first payments orchestration platform built for automotive, Bumper Pro. Bumper Pro enables dealerships to combine in-store and online payments into a single platform – simplifying payments management, lowering costs and giving clearer visibility into sales and aftersales performance.

James Jackson, CEO and Co-Founder at Bumper, said: “It’s an honour to be listed in the FT1000 for the sixth year in a row. The ranking follows another remarkable year of growth for Bumper – we surpassed £1.5bn in GMV, raised a further £8 million in funding and launched our new payments orchestration platform, Bumper Pro. We have ambitious plans for the year ahead and look forward to supporting even more dealerships to drive operational efficiency and reduce financial friction for their customers.”
