Global Payments' OpenEdge Fully Supports Apple Pay


(dpa-AFX International Compact Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Global Payments Inc. (GPN) said Wednesday that its Integrated Solutions division, OpenEdge, fully supports Apple Pay, and will deliver the service to more than 2,000 integrated software application developers.



Apple Pay is a new category of service that will transform mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay with Apple, Inc. (AAPL) iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The service lets Apple devices communicate with point-of-sale systems wirelessly through a groundbreaking NFC antenna design, a dedicated chip called the Secure Element, and the security and convenience of Touch ID, for payments within mobile apps.

OpenEdge will add Apple Pay to its software development kit, allowing developers the ability to embed the payment service into their offerings.
