Nilson Report Ranks Spire in Europe’s Top 3

Spire Payments, a recognised third player in the point of sale terminal market

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In its most recent reporting of official shipment figures, the leading point-of-sale industry analysts at the Nilson Report confirmed Spire as third largest player in Europe in 2011. The ranking confirms a rapid ascent since the organisation’s inception in August 2011, with figures based on shipments to the UK and Spain.

“With our ambitious growth plans, alongside our strategic partnership with Newland, we are aiming to consolidate our position further in 2013 and cement our status as the true alternative in terms of POS terminals and solutions, whilst upholding our exceptionally high standards of service and support.”

Significantly, the report was published in the same month that Spire revealed its new product range and international business strategy to senior figures in the payments industry at their product launch event in London. The statistics position Spire as 50,000 units clear of the next closest competitor, including Atos World-wide.

With a long term international business strategy and new product range, Spire's leadership team expects to see its numbers grow exponentially in the next three years and fully expect Spire to be the highest growth company in the sector.

Kazem Aminaee, CEO and President of Spire Payments comments, “It is an extremely positive sign for us that The Nilson Report ranks us as the number three European supplier in 2011.”

He continues, “With our ambitious growth plans, alongside our strategic partnership with Newland, we are aiming to consolidate our position further in 2013 and cement our status as the true alternative in terms of POS terminals and solutions, whilst upholding our exceptionally high standards of service and support.”
