The progress reported at the half year has been maintained with a steady advance in billings across each of our business divisions.

flexecash® our innovative prepaid card, continues to develop and we have now processed more than £155 million through the platform since its launch in 2010. flexecash® continues to open new markets and the new products we have developed for the employee benefits and charity markets are beginning to gain traction.

 

Orders for Christmas 2013 in the UK remain steady and at a similar level to last year, while in Ireland we are making very good progress with orders currently some 20% above the same date last year.

 

Love2shop, Park's leading multi-retailer gift voucher and prepaid gift card, is accepted at over 85 leadingretail stores, leisure outlets and attractions across the UK, offering our customers a wealth of redemption options.
