PayPoint expands partnership with Yodel and Vinted

PayPoint said it is expanding its partnership with delivery service company Yodel and Vinted, the online marketplace for buying, selling and exchanging new or secondhand items, across its Collect+ network, the leading out of home parcel pick up, drop off and send service in the UK.

The multi-year agreement will see significant transaction growth processed through the recently launched Collect+ Store to Store service, leveraging the superior in-store consumer experience delivered via PayPoint’s retailer partners in over 10,000 locations across the UK and building on the strong growth delivered in the Collect+ business over the past two years.


The growth in Vinted follows a dramatic rise in popularity of selling and sourcing pre-loved fashion, with consumers making more sustainable choices and demanding more convenient and greener delivery services.

“We are delighted that Collect+ will be playing a key role in this expanded partnership with Yodel and Vinted. As consumer channel shift continues to move towards out of home and greener delivery choices, our fantastic retailer partners will now have an even greater opportunity to serve the needs of their customers in communities across the UK through our leading OOH network,” Nick Wiles, chief executive of PayPoint, said.

“We remain fully committed to investing further in the in-store consumer experience, through technology and operational support for our retailer partners, as well as continuing to grow our Collect+ network to service the strong growth in this area.”
