MPE Awards with Focus on Fast Growth
This year’s award ceremony focused on fast growth, as Neira Jones, the Chairman of MPE 2022 Awards Judging Panel, pointed out in her welcome speech:
We remain committed to our Guiding Hand concept, and acknowledging a challenging couple of years, our Theme for this year is “Growing Faster”.
Since its founding in 2016, PAIR Finance has grown fast and at the same time sustainably. The more than 350 companies that already use the digital debt collection service include e-commerce and finance giants such as Zalando, Klarna, N26 and Sixt. The unique selling point is the AI-based technology, which PAIR Finance developed specifically for digital receivables management for the benefit of consumers and businesses. A self-learning algorithm analyzes customer data and typologizes different types of consumers. Following this typologization, the company contacts consumers at a specific time, through a specific channel, and with a specific tone of voice. This individualized approach allows PAIR Finance to find better solutions for each individual – both on the company and consumer side.
The Merchant Payment Ecosystem Awards
The Merchant Payments Ecosystem Awards, or “MPE Awards,” were launched in 2010 and have, over the last years, become an important benchmark of global excellence in card acquiring, POS and merchant payments. The awards bring a tribute to those parties and individuals who were instrumental in pushing the merchant payments ecosystem beyond the next level. The MPE Awards are the only European awards recognizing TOP merchant payments acceptance companies, individuals, and their achievements.
In 2021, PAIR Finance already received an MPE Award in the category “Best Payment Initiative for Merchants”. In 2022, PAIR Finance was nominated amongst the fintechs Elavon Merchant Services and GoCardless for the category “Best Use of Data Analytics and AI”.
