PayPoint-owned in-store parcel service Collect+ has unveiled a new partnership with e-commerce marketplace Wish, allowing consumers to click and collect parcels from Collect+ retailers.
With millions of buyers and hundreds of thousands of merchants using the Wish marketplace, PayPoint said the partnership will provide more opportunity for independent retailers to take advantage of increased footfall and opportunities to earn via their own partnership with Collect+.
The service will initially be rolled out to select stores across the UK and comes at a time when the e-commerce sector has been booming, following a sustained shift in online consumer purchasing habits over the last two years.
“This is an exciting opportunity for our retailers to partner with one of the world’s leading e-commerce platforms and further position themselves as indispensable service providers to their local communities,” Nick Williams, head of strategic partners and product at PayPoint said.
“In the midst of surrounding economic uncertainty and cost-driven pressures facing retailers, from inflation to energy rates, I am extremely proud that we are able to continue adding value to their partnership with us by driving additional footfall and opportunities to earn additional revenue for their businesses.”
Michael Gnaedinger, Europe director of logistics at Wish, added: “We are committed to continuously improving the logistics and shipping experience at Wish. This is why we are thrilled to enter into this strategic partnership with PayPoint as it more than doubles the number of available pickup locations for our customers in the UK.”
