SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico–(BUSINESS WIRE)–EVERTEC, Inc. (NYSE: EVTC) (“EVERTEC” or the “Company”) today announced that Almacenes Exito SA (CB: EXITO) (“Exito”), the largest supermarket chain in Colombia, is rolling out a new donation card service for consumers affected by COVID-19 supported by Evertec’s recently acquired digital payment gateway, PlacetoPay, as well as Evertec’s card issuing platform. This new service allows customers to donate, thru the portal, for the purchase of basic necessities redeemable using a virtual card at all Grupo Éxito establishments.
