Integration and Licensing Agreement between VeriFone and Isis Paves
the Way for Broad Retailer Adoption
CARTES in North America Expo, Booth #414-- VeriFone Systems, Inc. (NYSE:
PAY), today announced an agreement with Isis, the joint venture between
AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless, to integrate the Isis
Mobile Commerce Application in current and future NFC-enabled product
lines. The companies have also agreed that their sales, marketing and
implementation teams will collaborate to target large retail and
petroleum/convenience merchants in previously announced Isis launch
markets of Salt Lake City and Austin.
VeriFone's leading market share of U.S. retailers, NFC-ready product
portfolio and "payment-as-a-service" delivery model will help accelerate
the wide scale introduction and the adoption of mobile commerce.
VeriFone is the preferred payment solutions provider for retailers, with
70 percent of the top 200 retail companies in the U.S. and with more
than one million NFC-capable VeriFone MX Solutions systems already
deployed in the U.S.
"Payment systems at the point of sale provide crucial infrastructure for
the development of mobile commerce," said Scott Mulloy, chief technology
officer, Isis. "Our work with VeriFone helps bring to market the product
and technical capabilities critical to success, but more importantly
leverages VeriFone's massive U.S. footprint to turn on Isis quickly and
easily at large merchants."
"We are excited about the opportunity help launch Isis with retailers in
Salt Lake and Austin and we are ready to provide the expertise and
services necessary for a national rollout," said Jennifer Miles,
VeriFone executive vice president, North America. "VeriFone customers
will be able to leverage the integration of the mobile experience to
engage consumers with new payment options, couponing, and loyalty
services."
VeriFone will layer Isis interfaces and user experience onto its
pre-existing integration at hundreds of thousands of merchant locations
in the United States, alongside traditional payment forms. Merchants
will become Isis ReadyTM through a combination of new payment
systems and NFC add-ons devices, as well as remote software upgrades of
certain devices already in the field.
