Merchant Warehouse
Adds Web and Mobile Functionality to Platform
March 25, 2011
Merchant Warehouse, a Boston-based provider of merchant
accounts and credit card processing solutions, recently launched mobile and web
versions of its MerchantWARE TransPort processing platform. The company said
TransPort.Mobile and TransPort.Web offer the same versatility as the original
TransPort with enhanced functionality and enhanced security features. TransPort
enables POS developers to remove the card processing function entirely from
their software through a “transaction portal” and tokenization. The company
said this is especially important for mobile payment solutions since the PCI
Council has officially opted to not certify mobile applications in the near
future. “During this past holiday shopping period, consumers spent $30 billion,
both over the Web and through their mobile devices,” said Henry Helgeson,
co-CEO of Merchant Warehouse. “As consumers gravitate toward mobile payments
and e-commerce shopping, the need for a secure and certified online payment
solution becomes more obvious. TransPort.Web and TransPort.Mobile enable
developers to have a secure, feature-rich payment platform that protects card
data. It is also customizable so their merchants can extend their brand right
to their client.”
