If there’s one global company which always appears to be moving forwards in leaps and bounds, then it’s Worldpay. Starting out as an online multi-currency payment system 26 years ago, the upwardly-mobile Worldpay has never looked back.
The company was listed on the London Stock Exchange until January 2018, since when ownership has changed hands twice. The second of these purchases took place in July 2019, when Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) acquired Worldpay for $43bn. FIS is an American corporation which offers a large selection of financial products and services, and is famous for developing FinTech (Financial Technology).
As for WorldPay, the company processes in-person and online payments for businesses across a range of industries. It will accept over 300 payment methods, cater for more than one hundred currencies and provides phone support 24 hours a day.
And, according to the company itself, Worldpay should be the obvious choice for franchisors and franchisees alike. They offer a perfect solution for businesses of all shapes and sizes. These are companies keen to provide a uniformed service across their network.
So how would Worldpay offer a seamless payment experience for UK franchisors? Operating for more than a quarter of a century, Worldpay are trusted by over one million global clients. They accept hundreds of different payment methods, while providing value-added services aimed at helping companies manage their business needs.
Worldpay is always keen to emphasise that they create consistency across networks, not only reducing worries and stresses for franchisors and their business partners, but also improving overall customer experience.
Worldpay understands the need to integrate systems, which allow franchisors and franchisees to streamline their operations. And they explain: ‘We offer stand-alone terminals that are simple, reliable and affordable. And they all perform basic payment processing functions.’
Whether your business is large or small, all payment solutions are scalable, easy to implement and frictionless. And, thanks largely to the technology provided by FIS, this is the experience on offer for those who join Worldpay.
Worldpay has even created its own team of franchise specialists to offer industry expertise. The key facts are these: Mobile terminals are transportable, while offering other vital business services, such as accounting, payroll and customer relationship management (CRM).
Online processing allows you to accept payments securely and will also accommodate Pay-By-Link via emails and texted messages. Worldpay’s dedicated franchise team understand the need to be as frictionless as possible, enabling networks to streamline their operations and maximise revenues.
This team is on hand 24/7 to create payment solutions that support flexible operating models. Franchise networks can tap-in to these benefits that allow customers to pay easily, whether it’s via a till, or on the move, or online.
Worldpay are always proud to explain that they cater for more than 300 alternative payment methods. They understand the need for a consistent and frictionless payment experience across the franchise network.
