International payments app Zing, and digital payments provider, Checkout.com, announced a partnership to support the launch of a new suite of alternative payment methods integrated into Zing’s app.
Zing members can now use multiple top-up tools, including mobile wallets, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, made possible by Checkout.com’s global digital payment integration.
The update is part of a partnership through which Checkout.com will act as Zing’s primary global acquiring partner.
Zing has experienced growth since its launch and has established a strong presence in the United Kingdom thanks to its customer-friendly app, which allows members to “spend, send, and receive money internationally confidently.”
Since partnering with Checkout.com, Zing’s members have reportedly transitioned from card top-ups to alternative payment methods.
This highlights the demand for fast payment solutions – an integral part of Zing’s strategy to deliver “convenience” as well as “simplicity.”
This partnership enables Zing’s members to access a “worry-free” global money experience.
Zing is focused on leveraging Checkout.com’s technology to boost acceptance rates and deliver performance across the payment journey.
With direct acquiring available in more than 55 countries, Checkout.com’s global network will also enable Zing to roll out its “services to more markets in the future.”
James Allan, CEO and Founder at Zing, comments that fundamentally, Zing’s goal is to give members the “most convenient tool for cross-border payments, making international money worry-free, wherever they are in the world.”
Allan added that their partnership with Checkout.com, is, and will continue to enable us to “deliver the best experience possible for our members.”
Meron Colbeci, Chief Product Officer, at Checkout.com, comments that they are pleased to be partnering with Zing as it enters this next stage of growth.
Zing is a fintech built from the ground up and is “redefining” how people manage money both digitally and internationally – a mission “that is very aligned with our own.”
As noted in the update, a core tenet of our product philosophy is choice, giving customers the ability “to customize and tailor solutions to suit their growth objectives.”
As their customers look to grow their businesses and expand their footprints globally, their goal is to help them “navigate the complexity of payments in the markets they need.”
