Aschheim (Munich)/São Paulo (ots) -

- Omnichannel services allow to accept card payments online and
on-site
- Customer experience is improved and physical cash is no longer
needed

Wirecard Brasil (formerly Moip), part of the Wirecard Group, the
global innovation leader in digital financial technology, announced
today the launch of their omnichannel payment services in Brazil.
With the new mPOS (mobile Point of Sale) solution, all merchants in
Brazil can now accept immediate on-site card payments, improving the
customer experience and eliminating the need for physical cash.

The new solution offers benefits for both merchants and customers.
Tens of thousands of marketplace merchants from Wirecard in Brazil
will be able to carry out on the spot card transactions. The
adaptability of this solution to a variety of industries opens the
door to a wide potential target group for Wirecard. From a customer
perspective, the possibility to pay by card will be more widespread,
allowing for quick and hassle-free transactions.

Wirecard already offers payment solutions to small-sized local
clients in Brazil, including third-party transfers and bill payment
features. Such solutions have contributed to closing the nation's
financial inclusion gap, where a significant part of the population
does not have a bank account. The new mPOS solution can leverage on
the potential of card payments in Brazil. Wirecard's solution aims to
provide a cost-effective way for merchants to broaden their scope of
accepted payment methods, benefitting their business and meeting
their customers' needs.

Sandra Meermann Hying, Member of the Board in Brazil and EVP Sales
Operations at Wirecard, commented: "We are proud to offer this mPOS
solution to merchants around the country. Not only is this solution
wide-ranging, offering a mobile checkout to both small and
large-scale merchants and establishments, but it is also a welcome
innovation for both sides of the transaction process. Merchants and
consumers can now be fully cash-free and mobile. We are delighted to
further drive the digitization of payments in Latin America."
