Synchrony Financial has signed a new, long-term agreement to offer private label credit card services for Qurate Retail Group’s multi-channel retailer HSN from August next year.
The agreement expands Synchrony’s strategic consumer financing and credit alliance with Qurate Retail. It will replace HSN’s existing financing provider with Synchrony.
The strategic alliance leverages Qurate Retail’s expertise in social, digital and video commerce along with Synchrony’s marketing, credit, data and technology capabilities.
Furthermore, Synchrony extended its current agreements with multiplatform retailer QVC and e-commerce player zulily. Both QVC and zulily are Qurate Retail brands.
Synchrony first partnered with QVC and zulily in 2005 and 2017, respectively.
Qurate Retail Group senior vice-president of digital commerce & marketing Alex Miller said: “For HSN’s new credit programme, we selected a trusted provider with the right combination of deep experience with a tech-forward view on customer service, marketing and innovation.
