The FreedomPay platform complements and enhances our own, and gives benefits to merchants – particularly in the hospitality and leisure sector – to help them offer the best payment experience possible to their customers.”
Chris Kronenthal, President and CTO of FreedomPay, said: “We have ambitious expansion plans across Europe and Barclaycard is a critical acquiring partner of scale, with a reputation for trust and security, to help us with that journey. FreedomPay’s global reach is unique in the world of commerce and working with Barclaycard we will strengthen our capabilities across all continents. We are very excited to see the partnership prosper.”
FreedomPay’s commerce platform supports merchants and enterprises worldwide, merging security, identity, payments, loyalty, and advertising with proprietary data-driven solutions across a number of industries and point of sale and merchant service providers. FreedomPay also supports mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, with plans to add AliPay, WeChat Pay and China Union Pay in the near future.
