3. Revolutionising the Market High Street – with 281 street markets onboard – accounting for over 20% of the industry - we expect to double our market share through launching our retail e-commerce platform.

4. Modernising the Match Day Experience – we have kicked off stadium card payments for our first EFL football club and look forward to signing more historic clubs’ this season.
