National Express is the largest operator of scheduled coach services in the UK, providing more than 21 million journeys in 2019.

The contract award marks another milestone for the combined Post Office and Payzone networks, following the success of tie-ups with British Gas, Scottish Power Smart Metering, and Jersey Electricity.

Simon Lambert, commercial director for Payzone Bill Payments, said: “This partnership will now see a UK-wide service operating through our combined Payzone and Post Office network. National Express will complement our existing transport ticketing portfolio and will support footfall and basket spend for Payzone retailers at a pivotal time in the UK’s roadmap out of lockdown.”

John Boughton, commercial director at National Express UK Coach, added: “Joining forces with Payzone provides our customers with even more choice by allowing them to purchase tickets at a time and location convenient to them. We look forward to a mutually beneficial and successful partnership.”
