Online cash payment provider Ukash is partnering with UK retailer WHSmith to give consumers the ability to buy Ukash vouchers from 470 high street stores.
Ukash enables consumers to pay online without the need for a bank account or credit card. The vouchers can be used to pay for online shopping, get prepaid cards, buy gift cards, play online games such as poker and bingo or even to pay for Skype credit.
James Allum, chief commercial officer at Ukash, said: “WHSmith is the ideal partner for Ukash as we continue to help more consumers use cash to pay online. WHSmith is a name that consumers trust and by bringing Ukash into its stores we are raising awareness of our brand and increasing consumer choice for shopping and paying online.
Shoppers can convert their cash into Ukash vouchers by requesting Ukash at any till in a WHSmith high street branch.
Ian Sanders, WHSmith group business development director, said: “We are continually looking for new partnerships that will allow us to offer an even wider range of goods and services. Our partnership with Ukash forms a key part of that commitment to bringing more choice to our customers.”
