Established in 1996 in France, Welcome Real-time provides a comprehensive solution aimed at managing customer loyalty programs based on payment transactions.

Working in collaboration with one of Oaklins' teams in the USA, twenty qualified and highly interested buyers where identified through a disciplined sale process. The seller ultimately received attractive offers from two qualified buyers.
