PPRO launches subscriptions for local payments
0
The dedicated solution empowers Payment Service Providers (PSPs) and merchants operating in the subscription economy to accelerate growth through optimised local payment strategies.
The new solution enables customers to optimise their payments strategy and checkout journeys through dedicated access to functionality that drives incremental revenue by expanding access to local consumers, increasing loyalty, and reducing cost to create and manage an optimised payment experience.
Through Subscriptions for Local Payments, businesses can access:
• The payment methods that matter in the subscription economy - local payment methods and local cards such as Twint and Bancontact with native recurring functionality.
• PPRO-signature recurring enhancements - PPRO's advanced platform capabilities elevate schemes that don't offer native recurring, enhancing the functionality to become subscription-ready.
• Feature flows fit for the subscription economy - Dedicated features help cut down on free trial abuse, reduce payment declines, allow flexible billing, make onboarding friction-free, and more.
• Dedicated subscription expertise - focused on maximising conversion rates and minimising drop-offs, the PPRO team's deep local payments expertise serves as dedicated support to subscription customers.
Motie Bring, PPRO CEO, said 'With the subscription economy projected to be worth almost $1 trillion by 2028, the opportunities and competition are rapidly intensifying for businesses operating subscription models. Local payments are central to capturing this growth, helping merchants and PSPs reach more customers and stay competitive in a growing market."
With a growing number of consumers choosing to pay local, accessing some of the world's largest ecommerce markets means understanding and optimising recurring local payments, from local cards to local schemes.
For subscription-based businesses, offering the right payment method at checkout, and the right features in place to optimise conversion and recurring payments, are critical to success for sustained growth and retaining a competitive edge.

Private equity group Advent to acquire U-Blox for $1.3 billion
Aug 17 (Reuters) - Private equity group Advent International said on Sunday it has agreed to take over Switzerland's U-Blox Holding (UBXN.S), opens new tab in a cash offer worth some 1.05 billion Swiss francs ($1.30 billion). Advent said its public tender offer for U-Blox's shares would be carried out by its indirect subsidiary ZI Zenith. The 135 Swiss francs per share offer represents a 53% premium to the undisturbed volume-weighted average share price of the last six months, Advent said in a statement with U-Blox. The tender offer is subject to terms and conditions, and regulatory approvals customary for such transactions, and is expected to be settled within the next six months, it added. U-Blox, a maker of microchips and software for car navigation, said on Friday it was in talks with Advent. The Swiss technology group, which went public in 2007, said last week it cut its first-half loss before interest and tax to 7.7 million francs from a loss of 28 million a year earlier. Earlier this year, the firm sold a unit making cellular modules for wireless communication to focus on navigation and positioning technology used in cars, robots and farm equipment.

Britain to help restart civilian flights into Ukraine after ceasefire
Britain will help restart international air travel into Ukraine after a peace deal is agreed to boost the country's economy and rebuild its independence. The Coalition of the Willing, a group of more than 30 nations supportive of Ukraine, wants to establish 'normal' flying conditions in the event of a ceasefire. Royal Air Force fighter jets are due to join planes from other European nations in policing the skies to make sure that Russia does not launch a second full-scale invasion. But a secondary aim will be to once again reinstate international travel in and out of Ukrainian cities. A similar effort will be made to reopen Ukraine's ports by accelerating ongoing efforts to clear the Black Sea of mines. The ambitions show an additional feature of the West's hopes of rebuilding Ukraine into not just a secure and strong nation after the fighting ends, but an economically thriving one. There would also be upsides for European travellers, who for more than three years have experienced longer journeys as planes divert around the Ukrainian border. In the sky over Europe, from Portugal to Ukraine, the flight radar shows a striking contrast. Busy air routes full of passenger planes gradually give way to an empty horizon. — (@ukraine_ua) August 14, 2025 Planning for how Europe can do more to protect Ukraine's independence if there is a deal with Russia has been going on intensively for months. Sir Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron, the French president, have been taking the lead on the drive, with a joint headquarters being set up in Paris. The coalition has put an emphasis that nations reluctant to take part in peace-keeping efforts should not hold back others more ready to act. The coalition will also consider how to ensure Russia will not restock its military after a ceasefire is declared, which could enable a second full-scale invasion in the future. The Prime Minister committed to the consideration of putting British 'boots on the ground and planes in the air', though the idea of a mass UK deployment to man any new border has faded. Instead, hundreds of British military trainers and engineers will be sent into Ukraine to help rebuild its armed forces. The first deployments are expected to take place within a week of a ceasefire, with the UK presence ramping up in the weeks after that. Allies would fly planes over Ukraine to patrol the skies and deter a second Russian invasion, under the plans. The UK is willing to provide Eurofighter Typhoons and F-35s. This would also allow commercial air travel to resume. In July, the UK Government said planes from the coalition would provide 'air policing, reassuring the Ukrainian population and establishing the conditions for normal international air travel to re-commence'. Alongside this will be an effort to create 'safer seas' around Ukraine. The Black Sea Task Force, which was set up by Turkey, Romania and Bulgaria, would be bolstered with specialist staff to more quickly clear mines in the water. The UK Government said this drive would 'ensure safe and secure maritime access for all vessels transiting to and from Ukraine ports'. The resumption of more normal air travel and port activity would provide a boost to the Ukrainian economy at a time when Kyiv wants to rebuild its military. Other companies and travellers in Europe could benefit too. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) noted in its 2025 annual report: 'The ongoing war in Ukraine also has affected air transport in various ways. 'Twenty per cent of European airspace has been closed and Russian airspace overflight rights withdrawn for most Western airlines, requiring the re-routing of long-haul flights to Asia.' How quickly private airline companies would be willing to fly once again both over and into Ukraine, even with the coalition patrols, remains to be seen.
