Transforming Transactions into Meaningful Interactions

VeriFone makes it simple for retailers to interact with customers to ensure not just a sale, but an experience, utilizing tablets and smart devices that empower the salesperson and delight the consumer:

VeriFone is providing the payments acceptance for the co-branded solution, which offers end-to-end encryption of cardholder data and PCI compliance and handles all transactions through VeriFone's PAYware Connect gateway.

New version of PAYware Mobile for Tablets

More than 60 specialty retailers are using GlobalBay software—often in tandem with PAYware Mobile—to create exciting new in-store and omni-channel experiences for their customers through mobile POS, virtual look-books, online catalogues, clienteling and on-the-spot inventory management systems.

MX 900 series becoming the de facto standard

VeriFone's customers include 80 percent of the top 200 U.S. retailers. Since it was announced at NRF last year, dozens of these customers have standardized on the MX 900 Series to provide an enhanced customer experience at the point of sale.
