_Payment stakeholders collaborate to drive unified global card payment acceptance_

As nexo standards continues to respond to the expanding needs of the payments market, the association today announces that ten companies have joined its membership base in 2018 to support the growth of fast, borderless and interoperable card payments globally.

NCR, NSPK and UnionPay International have joined the association as Principal Members, while AEVI, Barclaycard, Elavon, FEIG ELECTRONIC, ID Tech, NEPTING and Wirecard have become Associate Members. Additionally, existing member PSD Codax has upgraded to Associate membership level and SIA SPA has upgraded to Principal Member status.

“nexo brings together all players within the payment card [value chain](https://www.financedigest.com/the-potential-impact-of-coronavirus-covid-19-for-riveting-tools-market-revenue-opportunity-forecast-and-value-chain-2021-2028.html "The Potential Impact Of Coronavirus (Covid-19) For Riveting Tools Market Revenue, Opportunity, Forecast And Value Chain 2021-2028") to address and overcome the challenges they face in relation to cross-border card payment acceptance,” comments Arnaud Crouzet, General Secretary, nexo standards. “Our membership, which now totals almost 90 companies located  around the world, helps drive the strategic direction of the association, develops and evolves the nexo messaging protocols and specifications, and collaborates to [share knowledge and expertise to ensure nexo continues to align with evolving industry](https://www.financedigest.com/mycology-immunoassays-testing-market-growth-share-industry-dynamics-top-trends-and-regional-analysis-forecast-to-2027.html "Mycology Immunoassays Testing Market Growth Share, Industry Dynamics, Top Trends and Regional Analysis Forecast to 2027") requirements.”
