London-based online payments company Paysafe is set to begin trading on U.S. public markets after merging with blank-check company Foley Trasimene Acquisition II Corp, billionaire business and sports executive Bill Foley told CNBC Monday.
Foley, who set up the special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, announced in December that it was targeting Paysafe in a deal valuing the firm at about $9 billion, including debt.
“Paysafe … is ubiquitous. It’s just everywhere in terms of the gaming world and digital wallets, e-cash solutions,” he said in a “Mad Money” interview. “We’ll actually go public tomorrow as we start trading on the New York Stock Exchange.”
Foley is the chairman of Fidelity National Financial and the majority owner of the Vegas Golden Knights.
