E-Clear is a British payment processing company handling credit card transactions, presently under an administration order. It provides merchant accounts for companies, allowing them to accept credit cards as a form of payment.^[1]

Formed in 2002 and based in Mayfair, City of Westminster, the company is based in Britain, but owned by a parent company registered in Cyprus, and its chief executive Elias Elia is a Greek Cypriot.^[2] E-Clear specialises in the travel industry, and is one of the main four companies handling credit card transactions for airlines and travel agents in the UK.^[3]^[4]

In 2007, Deutsche Bank announced the end of its agreement for card processing with E-Clear. As a result, E-Clear began buying shares in NordFinanz, a small loss-making bank in Bremen. By 2009, E-Clear owned 97% of the shares in the bank.

Board Members

Members of the company's board include Elias Elia, Derek Tullett and Sir Edward du Cann.^[5]
