Now, with this association GSN will gain access to a range of Fiserv’s Cash and Logistics Solutions, which include Integrated Currency Manager, Device Manager, Performance View and MatchPoint.

Various strategic contract wins hold future pledge for Fiserv. The company confirmed winning a bunch of contracts from various financial institutions during 2012.

However, the company’s financial segment faces tough competition from various big companies including Mastercard Incorporated (MA) and Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS).
