CHARGE Anywhere, provider of secure mobile payment solutions and payment gateway services, announced today the release of CHARGE Anywhere for the BlackBerry Storm2. The mobile card payment solution is now available through the BlackBerry App World and at www.chargeanywheredirect.com.
Discussing the expanded reach of CHARGE Anywhere’s solutions, the company’s President and CEO, Paul Sabella, said, “CHARGE Anywhere has the most comprehensive suite of merchant acceptance mobile payments applications, which now includes empowering the latest touch-screen BlackBerry smart phones with payments functionality. Now CHARGE Anywhere’s customers and partners can offer our award-winning mobile payment solutions on the BlackBerry Storm2 and the original Storm in combination with a Bluetooth card reader and receipt printer.”
Using optional hardware such as a Bluetooth printer with integrated card reader, the CHARGE Anywhere solution helps merchants receive the lowest possible credit card processing rate and the best customer experience. Sales receipts can also be printed at the point of sale. The Storm’s touch screen interface also enables electronic signature capture, eliminating the requirement for merchants to retain paper copies of signed receipts.
CHARGE Anywhere’s mobile payment software and payment gateway solutions are supported by all major card processors allowing for seamless integration with any merchant account provider. Merchants can boost the power and efficiency of their mobile payments solutions by enabling back-office systems integration to accounting applications, such as QuickBooks.
“A suite of APIs allows Independent Software Developers the opportunity to extend their applications and services with fully PCI compliant, brandable mobile card payment solutions,” said John Coloe, VP of Corporate Development at CHARGE Anywhere.
CHARGE Anywhere for BlackBerry enables merchants to quickly, easily and securely accept credit at the point-of-sale or point-of-service-anytime, anywhere. CHARGE Anywhere’s solutions are winners of the 2009 Best of Interop-PCI Security Solution, and the 2009 Electronic Transaction Association Technology Innovation Award.
