Summary
WorldPay (UK)
finance business enterprise
A netname joining a reseller's brand to a bank's initials, on a payment processor's block.
What it's used for
- A payment processor's network. Three IPv4 prefixes announced from the United Kingdom, no IPv6, one thousand two hundred and eighty addresses, across four observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Two blocks use the company's own brand as the netname, with nothing else in it.
- The third is
TRUSTMARQUE-RBS, which is two other names: a technology reseller's brand and a bank's three initials, joined by a hyphen. - All three blocks are registered to the same holder, so the third block's name records where it came from rather than where it is.
- The holder's name is written with the country code in parentheses, and the abuse team's name is the same words without them.
- The AS handle is the two letters for an autonomous system followed by the brand, with no separator.
- Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Payment processing needs very few addresses and very careful ones. Twelve hundred addresses behind four neighbours, with nothing answering a reverse lookup, is a network built to be reached by a short list of counterparties rather than by the public.
- A netname is the closest thing the registry has to a receipt. This one records a business changing hands twice while the addresses stayed where they were.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-15, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 442 networks and 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
