Description

Within three years, it is envisaged that the new office will provide operational support for a 100-person team across Europe responsible for expanding Chase Paymentech operations, marketing initiatives and customer support activities outside the United States. Chase Paymentech president and CEO, Michael Duffy, stated: "Our Dublin presence enhances the company's broader strategy to best servce our merchant partners and their customers around the globe through a series of cross-border automatic clearing initiatives".
