Welwyn Garden City, 21 October 2020: PayPoint today announced the extension of its partnership with EG Group, in a move that will see the continuation of its bill payment and parcel services in nearly 400 of EG Group’s forecourt sites across the UK.

Danny Vant, Client Services Director at PayPoint, said: “We’re delighted to renew our partnership with EG Group. The extension of our partnership means customers can continue to access our bill payment and parcel services at key forecourt outlets across the country.”
Ahmed Kazi, Group Operations Director at EG Group said: “PayPoint’s Collect+ and integrated bill payment technology help to drive footfall at our sites so we’re very happy to agree a new deal securing their services. Our sites are an important and valued part of the parcel network and their payment solutions help our stores operate at maximum efficiency.”
