EVO Payments supports Silkpay in its expansion in Europe

With the range of the most popular payment options in other European countries, the customer’s shopping experience can be improved on all channels. This is exactly what Fintech Silkpay, based in Paris, has set itself as its goal.

Silkpay opens up new markets and customers

In addition to the classic payment methods in European countries, the focus is also on Chinese consumers who use payment methods such as Alipay and WeChat Pay. “I want to offer the best experience to Chinese tourists visiting Europe and I plan to use Silkpay to give them the opportunity to pay in France and Europe like they would in their home country,” explains Annie Guo, Founder and CEO of Silkpay.
