Online payments firm Yapstone intends to create 200 new jobs at its Drogheda facility between 2018 and 2023. The American company currently employs 125 people in the facility, having established itself here in 2012. Recruitment will start in the New Year for the engineering and technology positions. The job expansion is enabled by a €41m investment by the company and is supported by IDA Ireland.
