Visa, a global leader in digital payments, announced a new strategic partnership with Analytic Partners, a global provider of analytics solutions. Together, Visa and Analytic Partners plan to solve business challenges facing merchants and brands through AI-driven data analytics that drive value, including increased return on advertising investments.

In a dynamic business environment filled with data, companies need meaningful and near real-time insights to make smart decisions, but solutions are often fragmented or not actionable. This collaboration will combine Visa’s merchant relationships and consumer spending insights with Analytic Partners’ Business Decision Platform to bring powerful marketing spend optimization analytics to merchants and brands around the world.

“The amount of data available to merchants can be overwhelming at times, and if they don’t process it correctly, they are missing out on growth opportunities,” said Jeni Mundy, global head of merchant sales and acquisition at Visa. “By combining our scale and insights with Analytic Partners’ deep expertise in business analytics, we will enable clients to be even more successful in their businesses. We look forward to unlocking the potential of new and enhanced solutions for merchants in the years ahead.”
