Launched at the end of 2018, BeeWee is ENGIE’s B2B marketplace for buying and selling spare parts within the group’s various entities. The first version of the platform was exclusively dedicated to connecting sellers and buyers. The need was soon felt to conduct financial transactions directly from the platform, in a secure manner and according to an appropriate regulatory framework; this inevitably meant securing a Payment Service Provider (PSP). To accelerate the development of BeeWee, Engie had turned to Wizaplace and wanted the latter’s partner, Lemonway, to manage financial transactions inside the
platform.
“We had 4 levels of requirements—functional and technological coverage, compliance, pricing and support—Lemonway met all of them perfectly. And they did so within a complex environment that requires a bespoke system as transactions are international and significant sums may change hands,’ says Sophie Guignard, Head of Digital Platform.”
