Fexco
and 3C - joint DCC solution for the global T&E market!
Fexco,
the global market leader in the delivery of Dynamic Currency
Conversion (DCC) credit card services to merchants and acquiring
banks, and 3C Communications, the leading EFT provider in
EAME join hands to provide the Travel and Entertainment market
segment with a global integrated DCC solution. With the long
standing experience in the DCC/Multi Currency and EFT environment
it is only a natural step for both Fexco and 3C to seek a
close cooperation and provide integrated DCC card processing
solutions to the Card Present and Card Not Present industries.
By
looking at the services offered by both companies, and the
expansion plans and territories covered by Fexco and 3C today
the synergies between the two companies become obvious, as
the products and services compliment each other across Europe
and lay a basis for the expansion to markets such as North
America, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. The main target
for the cooperation is to realise global DCC and EFT solutions,
as this is what the T&E market is striving and waiting for
a long time.
The
initial target markets for Fexco and 3C Communications are
UK and Ireland, the Nordic Region, as well as Benelux. The
provision of fully integrated DCC credit card services will
prove to the market that an integrated DCC environment makes
the difference to what else is available in the market and
enables the T&E market to focus on the main aspects of the
business: Guest Satisfaction.

SACHER
& 3CIntegra - Tradition goes Future!
Vienna
– May 2004: 3C Communications is very proud to announce the
cooperation with SACHER Austria.
SACHER
is one of the worldwide know brands and one of the hallmarks
of Austrian history and tradition. With two hotels (Vienna
& Salzburg) and four Cafés, SACHER is not only an attraction
to tourists, but moreover “A Place To Be” for people from
all over the world.
Having
worked with local acquiring banks and stand-alone-devices
before switching to 3C´s integrated solution, SACHER decided
to implement 3CIntegra, because of four major reasons:
-
Optimized processes at the front- and the back-office.
- Improved guest services.
- Financial benefits by partnering with international acquiring
banks.
- Secure payments due to pre-authorized amunts.
Convincing
an international, but also very local enrooted company shows
once again, the importance of being open-minded to international
solutions and the strength of 3CIntegra also in local markets.
