Payment processing and digital ledger infrastructure provider Episode Six has announced the availability of its payments-as-a-service solution on the AWS Marketplace . AWS Marketplace serves as a digital catalogue where customers can discover, purchase, and manage third-party software, data, and services for business solutions.

By listing its solution on AWS Marketplace, E6 aims to reach over 330,000 active AWS customers, offering a platform for deploying its configurable card issuance and virtual accounts technology. E6 operates a globally distributed issuer processor and digital ledger infrastructure across 14 AWS availability zones, spanning regions such as the United States, Europe, Singapore, Australia, Japan, and Indonesia.

A-Tono is an Italy-based multi-faceted company owning a technology lab, a payment institute supervised by Bank of Italy, a nonprofit organisation, and a digital agency.

The partnership allowed A-Tono to broaden and improve the payment solutions offered by its brand DropPay, an online payment account aiming to simplify the payment experience for both final customers and businesses. The collaboration represents a step towards widening DropPay’s Cards offer with the addition of gift cards, loyalty programmes, and cashback initiatives for clients. .
