Synchrony Financial (SYF - Free Report) has announced about its new long-term agreement to strengthen its consumer financing and credit relationship with Qurate Retail Group, a leading company in social, video and digital commerce.

HSN is going to replace its present financing provider with Synchrony, which is known to provide enriched customer experience and data insights. This deal brings together Qurate Retail’s advanced services in social, digital and video commerce, and Synchrony’s marketing, credit, data and technology capabilities.
Moreover, the company announced about the multi-year extension of its on-going deals with other Qurate Retail brands namely QVC and zulily. The relationship with QVC dates back to 2005 and the company has been working with zulily since 2017.
This deal is an addition to Synchrony’s strategy to invest in data analytics and mobile technologies to help its partners cater to the evolving needs of customers. Synchrony intends to enhance its embedded cross-functional team to boost unique services and products across Qurate Retail.
