Their aim was to provide a smooth, reliable ecommerce experience to the club’s fans looking to purchase club merchandise.
The solution

The easy API integration, combined with Planet’s competitive acquiring offer meant that FC Luzern could quickly and easily bring their e-commerce store in-house.

For Manuel, working with Planet means FC Luzern stays ahead of customer expectations and how they want to pay, providing a range of payment methods, allowing the customer to pay how they want.
