JCB, Japan’s only international payment brand, and First Cash Solution, a leading integrated payment provider as a subsidiary of Volksbank eG – Die Gestalterbank, announced a strategic partnership to significantly expand JCB Card acceptance throughout Germany. This collaboration has streamlined e-commerce transactions and expanded payment options for all merchants with J/Secure™ since its launch in 2024.
This collaboration significantly enhances the quality of service and strengthens fraud prevention for merchants accepting JCB payments, particularly for those customer transactions originating from Asia. The implementation of J/Secure™ reinforces First Cash Solution’s commitment to providing its existing merchants with the highest level of security and a seamless payment experience for their customers.
JCB Cardmembers can now enjoy an even smoother payment experience thanks to this collaboration and the implementation of this European standard. J/Secure™ has been implemented for First Cash Solution merchants accepting JCB payments. This will encompass a diverse range of merchants across various sectors, including accommodation, travel, dining, sports, and lifestyle. This partnership is set to boost JCB Cardmember spending throughout Germany, whilst simultaneously introducing First Cash Solution merchants to a vast new market of 164 million JCB Cardmembers, especially benefiting from a strong cardmember base from Asia.
