New Zealand-based digital payment platform Centrapay has signed an agreement with epay New Zealand to deal with gift cards issues such as lost, left at home, expiring, or unknown balance.
Centrapay CEO, Jerome Faury, says that epay’s investment in Centrapay’s platform extends their existing commercial relationship.
“Centrapay is at the forefront of a revolution in the way we exchange value. Like epay, we are innovators – committed to connecting brands and consumers in new ways. The fact that epay has selected Centrapay as its digital payment partner, shows that the company shares our vision for how businesses and consumers will connect, engage and pay in the future,”
Epay New Zealand’s Country Manager, Roger Smith says that there is increasing demand for contactless payments, driven both by hygiene concerns and convenience.
“Gift Station customers will be able to easily add their gift card to a digital wallet on their mobile and make payments using a QR code on Windcave and Verifone payment terminals across New Zealand. We see this as part of a growing shift from using physical cards and touching EFTPOS devices to a fully contactless experience,”
