“Especially in the travel sector, the payment processes can be extremely complex and long. We believe this should not be the case, and partnering with trusted and innovative brands like Wizz Air allows us to keep building the future of payments in the industry together.“
Ian Malin, Chief Financial Officer at Wizz Air, added: “We’re delighted to have partnered with Revolut as we look to bring even more flexibility and enhanced user experience to our customers.
