Flashback End of Year Editions: Top 5 stories 2022

To mark the end of the year, we’ve recapped some of the top news from this year at Snowdrop Solutions. In these top 5 stories of 2022, there is room for new releases such as the enhanced version of our transaction enrichment API, MRS, and also customer releases, such as the sustainability extension implemented by the neobank Rebellion Pay in Spain.

In addition, we continue to develop relevant stories around location intelligence, as Google Maps Premier Partner, as is the case of the success story we published with Costa Coffee in which we explain how we have been working with them in the implementation of Google Maps APIs all these years of partnership.

And speaking of partnerships, this year we have taken the leap to a more comprehensive partnership by joining Google Maps and Visa in Europe in a three-way collaboration.

All of this, with more detail and access to the full news, can be found below in our round-up of the Top 5 stories of 2022.
