As the world’s first payment service provider to offer more than 200 different local and global payment solutions, Wirecard offers an individualized and extensive set of payment tools for Wildberries, which allows its customers to pay for their purchases with all cards types and e-wallets. Today Wirecard handles all payments for the Polish Wildberries website, where the retailer has recently started its business. In the near future, the cooperation will be expanded to other European countries.

“Nowadays online shopping attracts more and more customers. Thanks to Wirecard, we can offer our European customers their preferred payment methods, which will help us to make shopping at Wildberries even more comfortable,” commented Vladimir Bakin, Financial Director at Wildberries. “We see Wirecard as an important partner of ours.
