“Best New Prepaid Product of the Year” Enabled Through TSYS
PayPal and The Royal Bank of Scotland Win at The Card Awards 2009
PayPal and The Royal Bank of Scotland have won the ‘Best New Prepaid Card Product of the Year’ at Card Awards 2009. The award recognised their successful PayPal Top Up product, which is processed by global payments services provider, TSYS.
PayPal partnered with The Royal Bank of Scotland to launch the PayPal Top Up Card in August 2008. The prepaid product has succeeded in making the PayPal brand more visible offline and has attracted new customers who did not previously have a PayPal account.
“As the leading gift and prepaid services provider in the UK, TSYS would like to congratulate PayPal and The Royal Bank of Scotland for this prominent award,” said Kelley Knutson, executive vice president of TSYS Global Services. “The Card Awards is a prestigious event which recognises excellence and best practices in the UK and Irish card payments markets.”
This is the second year that a TSYS client has won the award in the prepaid category. In 2008, Lloyds TSB was selected as the winner for their Lloyds TSB Silver Account & Money Transfer Card.
