Synchrony Financing Solutions Will Be Offered in Jewelers Mutual Marketing Materials and in Zing Marketplace

STAMFORD, Conn. – May 28, 2025 – Synchrony (NYSE: SYF), a premier consumer financial services company, and Jewelers Mutual®, an insurer dedicated to protecting jewelry and jewelry businesses for over a century, today announced a new sponsorship agreement to co-market both services to jewelry merchants looking to make customers aware of both financing and insurance coverage options.

“Through this new sponsorship agreement with Jewelers Mutual, we are extending the value Synchrony brings to retailers around the country,” said Darrell Owens, CEO, Lifestyle, Synchrony. “Jewelry merchants can now present their customers with financing options that make purchases more affordable,  while making their customers aware of the option to protect their jewelry, which is often among a customer’s most cherished possessions.”

As part of the agreement, Jewelers Mutual will showcase Synchrony financing solutions in its marketing materials as well as Zing® Marketplace, a comprehensive online platform created for its member retailers. Zing Marketplace features essential tools to help merchants best serve their customers, including jeweler web pages, diamond marketplace, a jewelry appraisal solution and, now, financing offerings from Synchrony.

Synchrony will also feature offers directly from Jewelers Mutual to merchants and consumers through select marketing materials as well as on Synchrony Marketplace, a shopping destination for consumers to find special offers from Synchrony partners. As a result, Synchrony will help elevate awareness of Jewelers Mutual and its insurance services, which are used by over one million customers throughout the United States and Canada.
