PaymentMax (PAY, Inc 500) a payment processing company that specializes in services to small and mid-size retailers, has announced their partnership with Apriva to provide its AprivaPay point-of-sale (POS) application. AprivaPay is software that is downloadable on a wide array smartphones including Android, Apple’s iPhone, and Windows Mobile devices. The partnership will give PaymentMax customers complete mobile credit card processing capability.
Credit and debit card-based payment processing on handheld devices is a rapidly growing phenomenon. As merchants look for ways to expand their sales, many have found a profitable answer by adding the capability of conducting end-to-end wireless transactions on the smartphones that they are already using to conduct business.
Max Payton, Director of Business Development at PaymentMax, believes that, “The partnership will give owners of small and mid-size businesses the most cost-effective payment solutions available, while retaining flexibility in sales operations and security in the management of financial data.”
Cell phone and handheld device technology has exploded in recent years and will continue to expand for the foreseeable future. As PaymentMax continues to augment its reputation for competitive rates, speedy funding, and 24/7 customer service, the partnership with AprivaPay software will give business owners a greater competitive margin for m-commerce.
Between them, the two companies have over 18 years of experience in a field that is still fairly new. Their success is based on the ability to produce payment systems that are known for their affordability, security, and reliability.
