This is a brilliant partnership and a fantastic opportunity for both parties. As the world continues to adopt retail finance as its preferred payment method, we’re very proud to be giving customers across Europe the chance to do this through an established, dependable lender like Oney. It’s fantastic to be working alongside a retail finance bank with as big an appetite for worldwide growth as ours at Divido.
