History

In 2004, NOVA announced that EuroConex is to buy Polish processor "CardPoint" from "Bank Zachodni WBK", owned by AIB,[2] netting AIB approximately €17million in profit.[3] This move allows Bank Zachodni to "sponsor" Euroconex's operations in Poland.

NOVA announces deals with Spanish Banco Santander, and the UK-based Alliance & Leicester, with 27,000 merchant accounts.[4]
