ReceiptHero joins Visa Fintech Partner Connect
ReceiptHero, which helps businesses digitize the customer receipt process, has joined the Visa Fintech Partner Connect program, a program that helps connect Visa clients in Europe with vetted technology providers.
The partnership strengthens the company’s relationship with Visa and provides access to new markets in Europe, ReceiptHero said in an announcement on Friday (August 12).
“Partnerships are a core part of what we do, and Visa’s Fintech Partner Connect program allows us to reach more Visa customers and partners to achieve next-level platform growth,” ReceiptHero CEO Chris Moore said in the announcement.
ReceiptHero provides merchants and issuers with real-time digital receipts, operating in European countries including Switzerland and Finland.
An advantage of ReceiptHero, the company says on its website, is that retailers can use the receipt process to launch digital relationships with customers. ReceiptHero, according to the company’s website, removes the need for businesses to create their own loyalty apps for customers.
For cashiers, according to the company, the checkout process is unchanged, and “receipt delivery happens automatically in the background.”
“We’ve come so far into digital payment innovation, and yet we’re only just beginning to see digital receipts become more accessible to cardholders,” Federico Sanavio, director of Visa Product and Fintech Partnerships, said in the announcement. “We chose ReceiptHero to be our partner to connect merchants’ checkout and POS solutions with our customers’ digital channels – with the ultimate goal of accelerating the adoption of digital receipts across Europe.”
So far, ReceiptHero has been deployed at around 3,000 outlets, according to the company.
The company, which says customers prefer digital receipts to paper receipts, states in its marketing materials that it has a number of security measures in place to protect customer data.
