With this acquisition NewDay became one of the largest specialist credit card companies in the UK, where it is also active in the near-prime credit card market. At present there are four active retailer agreements, namely Debenhams, House of Fraser, Arcadia Group and Laura Ashley, but there are also historical receivables in the pool from DFS, ASDA, Comet and others.
