Skrill powered by leading specialised payments platform Paysafe, announces the launch of Skrill Knect.

Skrill Knect is a brand new loyalty programme that rewards customers for building and maintaining connections with the movement of money to friends, family and businesses. It has launched in 30 European countries including the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands and Bulgaria, with plans to roll it out in all countries where Skrill is available.

Skrill customers can earn points for using their wallet or prepaid Mastercard®, which they’ll be able to exchange for e-money, discounts with participating merchants, gift cards for leading retailers, or interests in cryptocurrency via the Skrill Cryptocurrency Service. New and exciting reward options will be added on an ongoing basis.

Whenever a Skrill customer moves money, they’ll be rewarded: applicable Skrill transactions include wallet deposits, withdrawals, cryptocurrency transactions, person-to-person payments, and prepaid card transactions. 

Commenting on the launch, Lorenzo Pellegrino, CEO of Skrill, NETELLER and Income Access at Paysafe, said: “I’m extremely excited to be able to recognise and reward our customers and do that through the launch of Skrill Knect. From today, all Skrill customers will be able to enjoy exciting, relevant rewards just by using their digital wallet or prepaid Mastercard.”

He added: “Skrill Knect doesn’t just benefit our customers, but our partners too. We’re keen to work with existing and new merchants and brands to deliver the right reward to the right customer at the right time.”
