Nexi partners with Alpha Bank for digital payments in Greece

The integrated solutions offered by the joint venture between Nexi and Alpha Bank, will allow merchants, citizens, and public sector organisations to benefit from new services that will encourage the uptake of digital payment services in Greece.

Digital payments acceptance will be augmented for merchants and businesses, through the provision of ready-to-use tools that will allow them to develop and manage their customers’ payments more easily. At the same time, end consumers will benefit from a new, simplified, and cashless shopping experience.

Nexi Payments Greece aspires to bring Greece a step closer to digital transformation and a cashless payments culture, by boosting payments digitalisation, simplifying transactions, and enabling merchants and consumers for a new era of payments. 

The digital transformation of the state and the economy is a national priority, with the main objective of making the Greek society fairer and the Greek democracy stronger. By adopting digital technologies, transactions of citizens and businesses become easier, thus increasing their trust to the State and Institutions. At the same time, digitisation enhances the reforms in its tax administration to reduce tax evasion, creating a virtuous circle, where increased tax revenues lead to further reduction of tax rates and thus enhancing the country’s investment prospects, according to the press release.
