Project vision
The infrastructure that, by connecting to all the Acquirers operating in Italy, enables entities and institutions to offer citizens services associated with payment transactions made using electronic means. The Centro Stella was the infrastructure used to implement the Cashback program and is available to institutions for welfare initiatives involving the provision of benefits or reimbursements to citizens.
Advantages
FOR CITIZENS
With the Centro Stella and future infrastructure evolutions, citizens can have access to value-added initiatives and services delivered by the state or a public entity at the very moment they make a payment, without changing their experience of purchasing a good or service.
FOR THE COUNTRY
Through the Centro Stella, all the stakeholders involved in the payment processes are connected. This enables: on the one hand, joint initiatives between institutions and market players that encourage the spread of electronic money where the use of cash prevails; on the other hand, the implementation of programs that provide for the disbursement of a credit or reimbursement to citizens in a standard, more effective and timely manner.
