Edenred is a French company separated from the hospitality group Accor in 2010, and it operates the meal voucher and employee benefit schemes that tax rules in many countries make worth using. Its business is built on float and network effects: employers prepay for benefits, employees spend them at affiliated merchants, and the company earns commission from merchants and fees from employers while holding the balances in between. Headquartered near Paris and listed on Euronext, it also runs fuel and fleet payment cards and corporate payment services across some forty-five countries.
