hyperWALLET provides global payments for $600M rising star in Direct Selling Industry

 

Branded payments solution unifies Scentsy experience across multiple markets

 

Vancouver BC, June 3, 2011 – hyperWALLET, a leading provider of global payment solutions, today announced that Scensty has successfully launched hyperWALLET's eWALLET and prepaid card services to deliver a unified international, multi-currency commission distribution payment solution for their organization.

 

Later this year, Scentsy plans to augment its payment collection capabilities and dramatically reduce its merchant card services fees, by implementing hyperWALLET's Direct Bank Payments service.

 

Scentsy, Inc., the fastest growing consumer products company in the United States last year according to Inc. Magazine, is an Idaho-based company offering a variety of home fragrance products. In 2009 Scentsy was awarded the Direct Selling Association's first ever Rising Star Award. Scentsy is projecting sales of $600 million for 2011 from its more than 110,000 active Consultants across North America, UK, and Germany.

 

“We are honoured to be Scentsy's global payment partner as they expand to reach into multiple countries in the European Union and beyond” states Lisa Shields, CEO of hyperWALLET Systems Inc. “Simplicity is a core value common to both organizations - hyperWALLET's mission is to commerce-connect humanity through easy to use and economical payment solutions.”

 

Within three months of engagement, hyperWALLET rolled out a secure, dedicated www.scentsypay.com payment portal, and distributed over 70,000 Scentsy-branded Visa prepaid commission card for USA-based consultants. Consultants can also access their Scentsy payments through downloadable mobile applications or mobile browsers.

 

Tina Vargas, Commissions Specialist at Scentsy noted “We selected hyperWALLET as we executed our international expansion. With hyperWALLET, we can concentrate on bringing the Scentsy experience and business opportunity to new consultants in the European Union, without managing an ever-growing number of payment solutions to make that happen.”
