Author: Shivani Kumaresan | June 21, 2024 07:13am

Spanish financial services provider Banco Santander SA (NYSE:SAN) is reportedly nearing an agreement with Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) to offer financing options for European buyers on the e-commerce platform.

The deal, which is in advanced negotiations, is expected to launch in Germany first and then expand across Europe, according to a report from Bloomberg.

Santander aims to enhance its digital consumer finance business, which contributed around 10% to its group revenue last year.

Santander’s key strategy involves securing flagship deals with major tech companies, according to the bank’s recent annual report.

The partnership with Amazon will allow consumers to opt for loans when making online purchases, thus facilitating higher sales for both entities.
