With 700k+ users on-board, having a big-named partner like Amazon will be a real advantage for them as they expand as planned across Europe. For now, Leetchi users in France and Germany can spend their &#8216;pool&#8217; directly on Amazon.de or Amazon.fr, with the UK, Spain, and Italy coming in the next few months as Leetchi continues its expansion across Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Leetchi CEO C\u00e9line\u00a0Lazorthes has underlined the importance of this partnership to help fuel their growth across Europe. Up until now, Leetchi has been a big French success story, which is clearly well-positioned to have the same success on the European and even global level. However, it&#8217;s a business that requires partnerships with brands and stores on the local level to round-out their offer for each market. \u00a0At the moment they have an extremely comprehensive offer for France with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leetchi.com\/fr\/Partenaires\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">70 partners<\/a>, but are working hard to put the same in place in the markets they are currently expanding to.<\/p>\n<p>Having Amazon on-board will obviously make this process a lot easier as users in new markets will have immediate access to a massive number of potential gift items. In addition, Leetchi can leverage the credibility of having a partnership with Amazon to bring new, local partners on-board. With the impressive success they&#8217;ve had thus far in France, their big VC backing, and now this partnership, Leetchi is well-positioned to become <em>the<\/em> name in the European social payments space for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coming on the heels of their MangoPay launch, French social payments leader Leetchi has announced a big partnership with Amazon, adding Amazon gift cards to the list of potential gifts they offer. \u00a0Leetchi has been hinting for a while now that this deal was on the way.
