Edenred Payment Solutions supports WonderDays’ expansion into third-party channels with end-to-end gift card processing and technical distribution.
Edenred Payment Solutions has announced a new partnership with WonderDays, the UK’s most exciting experience day company, to scale their gift card program and reach a broader ecosystem of customers through B2B and B2C channels.
The agreement sees EPS provide WonderDays with its gift card processing solutions including; API-based platform, distribution access, and dedicated project and technical support, to underpin the company’s growth ambitions and help develop its offering in time for the peak gifting season.
WonderDays, the UK’s most flexible experience gift company, has built its reputation through a direct-to-consumer model. Now, with Edenred Payment Solutions’ platform and market access, it will expand into third party channels, across the B2B, B2C, Employee benefits and rewards space via a new partnership with Tillo.
Meeting the need for scale and reach
Until now, WonderDays processed its own gift cards through an in-house platform. However, as demand has grown, the business identified the need for a dedicated partner with the scale, reach and expertise to unlock new channels efficiently.
Edenred Payment Solutions, whose platform powers programmes for leading UK brands including Sainsbury’s, New Look and Ticketmaster, stood out for its consultative approach and ability to support not only processing, but also strategic distribution through partners like Tillo and Blackhawk Network.
With over 20 years of expertise in the gift card processing space and clear commercial structures, Edenred Payment Solutions brings both proven knowledge and a framework that drives sustainable growth for its partners.
