Savings bank corporate customers enter the digital future

S-Payment, the payment competence center of the Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe, and ePages, Europe's leading provider of cloud-based commerce solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are driving forward digitalization in commerce as part of a strategic partnership. All savings banks throughout Germany can offer their corporate and commercial customers the new web construction kit "S-WebSolutions". This enables them to support small and medium-sized companies on their way to digitalization and offer various solutions for a quick entry into online retail.

"S-WebSolutions" includes the two products "S-WebSite" and "S-WebShop", which ePages has developed specifically for the needs of brick-and-mortar retailers. With "S-WebSite", small and medium-sized companies can establish a strong Internet presence with which they can increase their visibility, make their products and services available to customers around the clock and reach new customer groups far beyond their regional environment. With the "S-WebShop", even small retailers can now offer their product range online at moderate cost and thus increase their turnover.

AI-based setup with ePages Copilot

By using the new ePages Copilot, an AI-supported setup aid, companies can create a professional website or web store with just a few clicks. Retailers can start with a low-cost website that already enables product listings. If required, this can then be expanded into a fully-fledged online store with a shopping cart function and integrated payment options at the click of a mouse.

The cross-border functions integrated by ePages also enable small merchants to ship their goods throughout Europe and have their product and service offerings automatically translated into up to eleven languages. In this way, suppliers of very specialized product ranges can become independent of national fluctuations in demand and expand their business across borders. Additional B2B modules also enable the processing of more complex orders from business customers, who often work with individual conditions.

"Our partnership with ePages enables us to effectively accompany the previously largely regional trade of our corporate customers into the digital world," emphasizes Christian Plaza Bartsch, Managing Director of S-Payment. "With S-WebSite and S-WebShop, we offer new customized solutions for our customers that facilitate their entry into e-commerce and at the same time make it future-proof."

"With this new partnership, we are directly reaching hundreds of thousands of small and medium-sized savings bank corporate customers," explains Wilfried Beeck, CEO of ePages. "We can help them digitize their business processes easily and cost-effectively and offer their products nationally or even internationally. New integrated AI functions, such as automatic translations, open up completely new growth opportunities for regional trade."
