ADVAM Moves Forward with Global Growth and Becomes Part of Transaction Network Services

ADVAM is a leader in payment solutions, delivering unattended payments and ecommerce solutions to the parking, airport, shopping centre, government and self-service sectors. Headquartered in Adelaide, Australia and with European offices in Manchester, England, ADVAM has experienced significant growth, working with many of the leading organisations around the globe.

Through the acquisition by TNS, ADVAM will be supported in its global expansion. ADVAM plans to continue to develop its market leading solutions and focus on delivering exceptional customer service to its global client base.

Jose Da Silva, CEO of ADVAM comments, “ADVAM has always been focused on delivering market leading solutions and excellent service to its customers. Due to this commitment, plus the support from our customers and industry leading partners, ADVAM has experienced significant growth and in recent years has expanded into new geographic markets and industry segments. We’re delighted we will be under the new ownership of TNS, which will allow us to continue to deliver the latest innovations, build on our existing portfolio and ensure customers continue to receive an exceptional level of service”.

There are no planned changes to the ADVAM business, or the customer agreements that it holds. ADVAM and TNS are committed to grow the ADVAM global business and TNS will be well placed to support from its global operations in Australia, UK and US, as well as its wider office network which spans the Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific regions.

Mike Keegan, TNS’ Chief Executive Officer, said: “We are excited ADVAM is becoming part of TNS and to be playing a pivotal role in the next stage of its global development. ADVAM has an impressive portfolio of solutions which complement those of TNS and together we see many synergies for our joint business. Our extensive connectivity to the world’s payments industry will enable us to help ADVAM customers reach more end points and reinforce their business with additional value-added solutions through a single supplier relationship.”

After completion of the transaction, ADVAM will continue to operate as a separate business and continue to deliver its market leading solutions to new and existing clients.
