LONDON, 27th August 2019 — Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN), a leading worldwide provider of payment technology and software solutions, announced today a partnership with Lavanya Plus to offer its flagship product, WeMa Care Concierge, to Global Payments’ employees located in the UK.

WeMa Care Concierge offers employees the opportunity to source social and community care services to help manage the health and wellbeing of themselves and their families.

Through WeMa Care Concierge, employees may take an assessment to determine the level of support they need. WeMa Care then connects employees to the appropriate services, whether this is social care, such as elderly care, nursing care or dementia care, or health and wellbeing services, ranging from chiropractic care and physiotherapy to Pilates and yoga.

Vivek Patni, Chief Executive and Director at Lavanya Plus, said: “We’re pleased to support Global Payments’ UK-based employees to assist with finding the best service providers for their needs.

“My family founded Lavanya Plus following our own experiences navigating social and healthcare providers and struggling with how time-consuming it can be to find the best care. We’re committed to simplifying the process for families and making high-quality care accessible and straightforward.”

About Lavanya Plus
Lavanya Plus was founded by Rohit Patni, Rajal Patni, and Vivek Patni. As a family trio, they were inspired to develop a digital caretech solution after experiencing first-hand how cumbersome and emotionally draining it was to find and book reputable social care, health and wellbeing service providers for an elderly relative.

Central to these objectives is Lavanya’s flagship product WeMa, short for Wellness Management, a scalable online, trusted and quality-controlled technology enabled care ecosystem that is available anytime-anywhere. WeMa sits centrally within the digital care pathway and puts ‘people before tech’ to match individuals with the right and most suitable service providers that deliver their personalised care needs within their budgets. Whilst taking a person-centred approach, it uses digital tech to access, pay for and deliver these services resulting in real societal change by helping to Connect Care in Communities.
