Postepay ecosystem has a significant growth potential thanks to Italian under-penetration of digital payments compared to EU standards and to its unique market positioning.

The division will overperform the market in transaction value relying on the strong presence in e-commerce.

In addition, Postepay aims to exploit this opportunity by leveraging its large and loyal customer base and particularly the 10 million IBAN-backed Postepay Evolution cards.

The payment ecosystem is designed to be instant, multi-rail and adaptable to new payment methods, with the SuperApp serving as a pivotal access point, and the Digital Payment wallet as its engine and checkout.

In Telco services Postepay is poised to capitalize on the emerging fibre opportunities and to strengthen its positioning in mobile through the extension of the Postepay Connect model.

In the Energy sector, successfully launched in 2023, Postepay will grow in a balanced way leveraging on an innovative and transparent offer with a pull sale model, in a dynamic market with 8.8m contracts signed with new suppliers each year.

Postepay will also contribute to the Group and country’s green transition with mechanisms that reward the most eco-conscious consumers.
