“Our mission is to empower businesses worldwide no matter how unique, small or mobile,” Marc-Alexander Christ, founder of SumUp. This passion to support and help entrepreneurs thrive is something we share with Treatwell and this partnership is a step towards making 25,000 Treatwell merchants Europe-wide succeed by offering them card acceptance.
“Accepting card and NFC payments is a chance for small businesses to target more consumers, potentially growing their revenue, but it lets them do it in their own way and at their own pace.”
