PRESS RELEASE
WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading provider of global business process outsourcing (BPO) services, today announced that BizAps, a WNS group company, has acquired XiBuy™ from Houston-based Paymetric, Inc. XiBuy is a certified SAP® add-on solution for integrating and managing purchasing card (p-card) transactions in SAP.
