Adyen has extended its retail presence as it elevates the payment journey for commerce giant Foot Locker.
The firm will power payments in various markets and sales channels globally by building on the collaboration between the pair that has been in place since 2018.
“Adyen’s single platform and global reach allow Foot Locker to provide an exemplary payment experience that’s tailored to the needs of our customers in various markets across North America, Europe, and APAC,” said John Wompey, VP of Customer Connectivity at Foot Locker.
“Adyen’s ability to accelerate and simplify the implementation process has been critical to our continued success in these markets.”
“As always, we aim to give our merchants the ability to give their customers the best experience and we are thrilled to continue to grow the relationship with Foot Locker and help them do so,” added Kamran Zaki, COO at Adyen.
“Foot Locker is in a unique position to bring the best of athletic footwear and appeal to more customers globally and we are proud to partner with them.”
Furthermore, recently releasing new data, Adyen emphasised the importance of unified commerce retail in mitigating the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the sector and wider economic systems.
Anonymised transaction data across Adyen’s global payments platform detailed that around half of retailers adopting a unified commerce or omnichannel approach saw their total number of transactions remain consistent during the pandemic, which saw a reduction in sales volumes from stores was offset by online channels.
