optile Announces Partnership with Worldpay

Munich, 29 November 2017 – optile GmbH, an open payment platform for international online enterprises, announced their partnership with Worldpay, a leader in global payments. The partnership will combine optile’s expertise in advanced payment business solutions with Worldpay’s strength in multi-currency processing and international e-commerce.

The partnership currently covers several strategic clients of various industries for both Worldpay and optile. The newest client is windeln.de SE, one of the leading online retailers specialized in baby and toddler products in Europe. The company also operates a successful cross border e-commerce business with customers in China. At the moment, windeln.de SE is expanding their business with Worldpay’s extensive experience in international payment processing. optile delivers the quick and PCI compliant connection between windeln.de and Worldpay. As both companies were connected to optile prior to integration, neither company will see a change in their systems nor will they have to complete any additional setup to allow windeln.de to start using Worldpay's services.

“We are excited about our new partnership with Worldpay, as it represents our belief that the future of payments lies in a connected world”, said Manuel Sandhofer, VP Sales and Partner at optile. “The partnership is a strong, strategic fit, leveraging the two companies’ respective strengths within our Open Market Network.” optile aims to build a trusted community of payment partners and merchants worldwide.

optile is part of Worldpay’s recently launched “Worldpay Works With” portal, which is designed to showcase all of Worldpay’s integrations and partners. ‘Works With’ includes details of over 60 partner integrations, plug-ins, and add-ons, including e-commerce and point of sale platforms, and integrations with the Internet of Things and subscription management service providers. This enables Worldpay’s customers to easily research and choose new applications or services and add them to their payment systems, and request enhancements to existing partner integrations.

International online businesses which are connected to the optile platform can access any payment method, provider, or third-party logic worldwide while staying flexible and free in optimizing and expanding their payment portfolio. Using optile’s single global payment interface helps online enterprises to quickly configure their payment setup, therefore significantly reducing technical and operational expenses. The “implement once”-approach of optile Open Payments guarantees independence and uniform processes without requiring technical alterations. The key to this concept lies in the abstraction of payment-related processes so that they are able to seamlessly interact, complement, and complete each other.
