Hello Worldpay!

This week we're thrilled to reveal that, after a competitive pitch, we'll be partnering with Worldpay on a large scale digital transformation initiative.

Worldpay is a global leader in payments processing technology and solutions. On a daily basis they process over 31 million mobile, online and in-store transactions - that’s around 400 a second. Here in the UK, Worldpay process approximately 42% of all transactions.

As tech geeks ourselves, it's a perfect fit to be working with the global leader in payment processing technology, across their UK, US and Global teams.

In the coming months, we're going to be looking holistically at their customer facing digital ecosystem. We’ll be looking to improve the customer and prospect experience across the board, implementing new functionality to drive Worldpay forwards.

We've already been able to leverage our creative expertise to help launch Worldpay's Fantastic Journey, an experience guiding users through the brave new world of payments.

We've also been working with Worldpay to develop the Worldpay Spotlight, a tablet optimised video tool for their sales team to use on the ground to help surface the relevant video content for prospective clients in a slick, engaging experience.

Keep your eyes peeled for what comes next.

Spain, the next tech-hub?

When you hear Madrid you may think primarily of culture, football, nightlife, but not necessarily the tech industry. But over the past three years much has changed and the tech industry is booming thanks to startups and agile ways of thinking.

Spanish startup funding is up 83% in 2015, according to a report by ASCRI (Spanish Association for Capital, Growth and Investment) and with 78% of that investment going into ICT and digital projects, Madrid is fast becoming the new tech-hub of Europe.

The Spanish economy has been hit hard by the economic downturn but the fast paced, agile thinking of the tech industry has come out stronger than ever and shows a great future ahead of it.

Tech leaders such as Google and Amazon are embracing the potential of Madrid. In 2015 Google opened Google Campus, and summer 2016 saw Amazon opening their tech-hub, one of only 3 in Europe. There are several other impressively backed incubator and startup hubs too.

“Tech talent in Spain is abundant and of high quality, but most importantly it is available.”

Adam Sedó, Amazon Spain

Earlier this year (2016) Catch opened its Madrid offices, expanding its services into the Spanish market and to access the tech talent pool Madrid has to offer.

This is exciting news for Catch and the future growth of Madrid as a cornerstone of the European tech scene. With the recent launch of Catch Studios and opening of our office in Madrid Catch are in a great position to capitalise on the burgeoning tech scene in Madrid.
