This multi-regional collaboration will expand payment choice for Cardmembers, allowing them to pay with their JCB Cards at participating merchants in the United Kingdom, Germany and Poland.
“We are delighted to have signed and sealed our partnership agreement with Fiserv,” comments Ray Shinzawa, Managing Director, JCB International (Europe).
“This collaboration will allow secure, convenient and speedy payment gateways for our JCB Cardmembers and the valued merchant clients of Fiserv.”
Merchants ranging from large enterprises with an omnichannel focus to smaller businesses with their sights set on delighting an international customer set will benefit from the ability to offer an additional payment option through their existing merchant acquiring relationship.
Fiserv, which was named Merchant Acquirer of the Year at the 2022 Merchant Payments Ecosystem Awards, will support JCB Contactless and J/Secure payment gateways for the European merchant communities.
The new collaboration is a key part of JCB’s plan to increase its card acceptance rates across Europe, enabling a seamless and secure payment experience.
“In an interconnected world consumers value the ability to pay wherever and whenever they want, using their preferred payment method,” notes Sebastian Gollwitzer, Head of Merchant Product for EMEA, Fiserv.
“Our partnership with JCB will enable businesses to broaden consumer payment options, simplify payments acceptance, and accelerate growth.”
