This collaboration integrates ViaPlus' mobility back office, which processes and reconciles large transaction volumes, with Nuvei's extensive global acquiring and processing capabilities, facilitating a wide array of digital applications through numerous Alternative Payment Methods (APM) integrations. Richard Arce, president and CEO of ViaPlus, commented on the initiative: “This partnership underscores the dedication of ViaPlus and VINCI Highways to improving the driver experience by providing secure and efficient payment solutions within the global mobility ecosystem.” The integration of Nuvei’s payment technology platform with ViaPlus introduces over 700 new payment types to the ViaPlus system, creating a new digital payment network named ViaPlus Nexus.
