Visa Checkout will launch several new global co-marketing campaigns with merchants in the near future, ranging from consumer promotions to social media campaigns and sponsorship marketing. Merchants that have previously partnered in successful promotional campaigns include Dunkin’ Donuts, Fandango, Gymboree, Pizza Hut, Virgin America, Williams-Sonoma and zulily in the US, Cineplex Theatres and Indigo Books & Music in Canada and Freedom Pizza in the UAE.
