'Branded Payment Solutions Wins Top Honour at 2009 Annual Prepaid Awards'

 

Branded Payment Solutions (BPS) last night scooped the award for Best Prepaid Programme Manager at the Second Annual Prepaid Awards, held at the Sheraton Park Lane Hotel in London.

 

The awards were designed to recognise organisations that are leading the prepaid sector forward and BPS surpassed all other entries to win this accolade, demonstrating their success and innovation in the prepaid sector.  BPS was singled out as for its innovation with shopping centre gift cards, specifically for developing an automated system for b2b sales, an ecommerce solution for online sales, and a system to capture business intelligence, all of vital importance to the retail property market.  BPS was also short listed for a second award, in the category of “Best Corporate Card”, and was the only non U.K. entrant.

 

Branded Payments Solutions delivers an end-to-end prepaid programme solution for its many prestigious clients across Europe, ensuring a real and lasting return on investment, backed by state of the art proprietary technology and extensive product knowledge. BPS also won the 2008 Paybefore Award for “Best Retail Gift Card Programme in Europe” for having concurrently rolled out a comprehensive open loop programme in multiple European countries with different currencies.

 

Tim Murphy, CEO of BPS stated: “We very much appreciate being awarded “Best Programme Manager” in recognition of our success in creating solutions for our clients across Europe.  This award underscores the BPS hallmark of partnering with clients to ensure a rewarding result over the long term. BPS remains committed to market innovation and delivering an excellent client service”.
