Shift4 (NYSE: FOUR), the leader in integrated payments and commerce technology, today announced several key promotions and leadership changes.

Effective April 1, 2026, Pier Francesco Nervini will become President of Shift4 International. Pier has held multiple senior positions at Global Blue since joining the company in 2014.
