The partnership with Wirecard will enable these retailers to accept Chinese payment methods at the point-of-sale.
Wirecard said that it will also enable retailers offer a “unified purchasing experience across all sales channels and touchpoints”.
In this context, Wirecard cited data by travel service provider Ctrip.
According to Ctrip data, the number of Chinese tourists in Nordic countries surged 82% in 2018 from the year ago.
