Payment processor WorldPay and ZNAP, a mobile business platform, have agreed to a global partnership which will enable multichannel commerce for new and existing businesses. The joint offering has already been deployed by the Rugby Football Union at Twickenham Stadium in the U.K., WorldPay said in a press release.

ZNAP is a mobile app that enables customers to shop, pay and receive special offers and loyalty rewards through their smart device, according to the press release. By integrating WorldPay's payment gateway into ZNAP, customers can choose their preferred method of payment from a portfolio of more than 200 alternative payment methods, as well as traditional credit and debit cards.

"By partnering with ZNAP we can offer businesses a highly competitive multichannel service," Kevin Dallas, chief product and marketing officer at WorldPay, said in a press release. "Our unrivalled alternative payment portfolio means that businesses using ZNAP can instantly gain access to hundreds of payment options to offer customers their preferred payment method. Payments made through the ZNAP platform are routed through WorldPay, meaning that instead of having the headache of manually collating payments from different sources, businesses can track the payments collected through one secure connection."
