What was recognized
An external validation of how we innovate.
Paysoft was awarded COTEC INNOVATOR 2026 Status, a reputation seal created by COTEC Portugal to recognize national companies with high innovation performance and capacity for creating economic, social, and technological value.
This recognition does not evaluate just an isolated idea, product, or project. The model analyzes the company holistically, crossing indicators related to research and development, turning knowledge into results, economic performance, and financial strength.
For Paysoft, this distinction reinforces what guides our work: developing software capable of simplifying complexity, improving processes, and creating conditions for businesses and professionals to evolve.

03Innovation into value
In a market where many companies present themselves as innovative, an independent validation adds an objective reference when choosing a tech partner.
For our clients and partners, COTEC INNOVATOR 2026 Status reinforces three dimensions of Paysoft: a consistent commitment to knowledge and technology, the business capacity to sustain that commitment, and a clear orientation toward turning innovation into value.
This recognition does not change how we work. It makes the consistency of our path more visible.
What comes next
A recognition of the journey. A responsibility for the future.
We receive this distinction as a validation of the work done and, above all, as an incentive to keep moving forward.
We will continue investing in talent, knowledge, proprietary software solutions, and new ways to address business challenges. Because for Paysoft, innovating isn't just adopting technology—it means turning complexity into simpler, useful, and adaptable solutions.
