Fintech company Zip Co Ltd (ASX: Z1P) has announced a partnership with Officeworks, the Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES) owned supplier of office products and solutions.
The partnership will allow customers to make interest free payments at Officeworks using their Zip digital account.
This follows previous announcements made by Zip to partner with Virgin Australia Holdings Ltd (ASX: VAH) subsidiary Tigerair Australia.
Zip CEO and managing director, Larry Diamond, believes that the partnership with Officeworks delivers on Zip's strategic vision and continues to build upon its presence in the home, school and educational sectors.
Zip shares were up 3.75% following the announcement.
Zip operates under the Zip Pay, Zip Money and Pocketbook brands. Zip shareholders will be hoping that the new partnerships announced by the company can help it compete against major rival Afterpay Touch Group Ltd (ASX: APT).
