MILAN, ITALY, July 27, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- REPX, the London-based fintech with solid Italian roots, management and creativity, has entered into a new operating agreement, choosing EPIPOLI SpA as its exclusive partner for the Italian market, for the production and distribution of branded, non-reloadable Prepaid Cards for large-scale retail channels. REPX has achieved undisputed leadership in the market niche referring to co-branded payment cards destined for the world of football and its supporters, which has seen it enter into agreements with the most important teams in Italy, among others Milan and Rome, just to name a few, and in the world with the most iconic football team of all, Real Madrid, as well as English, German and, shortly, French teams. According to a research recently published by Sponsor United, an industry benchmark for brand analysis in sport and visibility, REPX is ranked ninth in the world among 109 fintech brands surveyed for level of visibility in sport, behind unicorns but ahead of very important competitors.

This escalation of agreements and results has aroused the interest of several big players in the sector and it is in this context that the strategic collaboration and distribution agreements signed in the last period are inserted, among which, last in chronological order, that with a reality of absolute importance such as EPIPOLI, which marks REPX's entry into the world of non-rechargeable Prepaid Cards destined for large organised distribution.

"EPIPOLI - REPX management comments on the terms of the agreement - is a perfect partner for us with its network of 50 thousand physical points of sale and its presence and technology in e-commerce. It is an international company that, through non-rechargeable prepaid cards, that can also be found at supermarket checkouts and other sales points, allows people to make purchases online and in shops even without having a current account.

EPIPOLI also promotes the sale of these products through its own e-commerce platforms (such as mygiftcard.it or groupalia.it) in addition to the Business to Business channel. EPIPOLI is therefore a fundamental partner for REPX to bring its payment tools within the reach of all fans of the teams contracted by REPX.
