Wiercinski Kwiecinski Baehr has advised Polskie ePlatnosci on the acquisition of a majority stake in Team4U. Answer Wojciechowski i Partnerzy advised the seller.

Nexi Group company Polskie ePlatnosci (PeP) is a payment card operator with operations in Europe.

"The acquisition of Simapka is a strong signal of the direction of PeP’s development. We will focus on comprehensive solutions based on added services tailored to the needs of customers. We want to build an ecosystem in which payment will be only one of many elements."
