Have you herd about the BAAA (Buy Any Awards Association) Awards?
Why pay thousands for an award when you could just ask for one? At Monavate, we believe genuine achievements deserve recognition, not just deep pockets. We're poking fun at an industry where buying trophies has become more important than earning them.
Nominate
No entry fees.
No politics.
No pretence.
The BAAA Awards (Buy Any Award Associations Awards) 2025 invites anyone in the payments industry to nominate themselves for literally any award they desire - and we’ll actually give it to them, completely free of charge.

The BAAA Awards are now open for submissions until 2 June’ish 2025… Kidding. Submissions are open until 2 June 2025 (and we mean exactly midnight GMT+1 - our lawyers made us specify this). Winners (which is everyone, obviously) will be announced on 20 June. We think. Unless we forget, but we will try really hard not to. (The lawyers will remind us.)
How it Works
Submit your name, company, and your desired award category.
The more creative, the better!
Do Judges Matter? No. But Also… Yes?
Everyone who enters gets an award - obviously. But one extra-special award will go to the best made-up category. The more creative, the better.
