Paysafe Launches EMV-Enabled Global Omni-Channel Services Through Expanded Partnership with Handpoint
Paysafe (LSE: PAYS.L), a leading global provider of payment solutions,
has expanded its long-term partnership with Handpoint, the award-winning
FinTech provider powering NextGen (News - Alert) point of sale (POS), to offer
EMV-ready mobile point of sale and online payment solutions to merchants
and partners in Canada, the US and Europe. Through this partnership,
Paysafe offers end-to-end frictionless payments online, in-store and
through mobile devices and tablets.
The global solution supports Paysafe's growing Integrated Partnership
Channel. This provides Value Added Resellers and Independent Software
Vendors and Software-as-a-Service companies, such as Membership
Management Platforms, Donor Management Platforms and Field Service
Software Applications, with the ability to take in-person or online
payments using a solution that is directly integrated into their
technology platforms.
According to a Forrester (News - Alert) report*, business suppliers are racing to meet
buyer demands driven by consumer online buying experiences. 83% of B2B
sellers are either in the process of upgrading/implementing their
eCommerce suite or planning to do so within six months. Paysafe's
omni-channel solutions enable merchants to accept credit cards, debit
cards and ACH (Direct Debit) payments through its PCI (News - Alert)-DSS compliant
payment gateway. The solutions offer tokenization to protect and safely
store customer data, and use Paysafe's state-of-the-art REST APIs and
SDKs for seamless integration.
The new Paysafe MPOS mobile app for iOS and Android (News - Alert) is built exclusively
to work with Handpoint's secure mobile payments solution, and is perfect
for merchants looking to accept in-field payments. Software developers
can also choose to integrate user-friendly SDKs for mobile platforms and
cloud-based POS to tae advantage of Paysafe and Handpoint's end-to-end
mobile EMV solution: P2PE security, pre-certified EMV, fast and easy
merchant activation, and remote terminal management.
Danny Chazonoff, Chief Operating Officer at Paysafe, commented: "As the
payments landscape evolves, integrated payment solutions are becoming
increasingly important to a merchant's payment offering. With our global
reach and support of local payment methods through a single integration
to our proprietary gateway platform, our Integrated Partnership Program
is one of the most complete in the market today. Our omni-channel
capabilities, supported by our long-standing relationship with
Handpoint, further solidify our value proposition for our partners and
merchants around the world."
David Gudjonsson, CEO and co-founder of Handpoint, said: "Our
complementary relationship with Paysafe allows us to work together on
deploying multi-channel payment solutions to businesses and merchants
worldwide. We're excited to continue to support Paysafe with our
award-winning mPOS and POS solutions."
Paysafe and Handpoint are exhibiting at the Money 2020 show in Las Vegas
on October 24-26 where they will provide demos of mPOS and POS solutions
at booth 2434.
