| | One of Mintegrate’s pioneer adopters, ViViPOS developed "Mobile ViViPOS", a point of sales system for the hospitality sector. In the near future, Mintegrate will be incorporated into Mobile ViViPOS’ functionality to enable customers to make card payments at the dining table. Andrew Noakesmith, Sales & Marketing Manager from ViViPOS said “It was important for us to work with a company like Mint Wireless that has a proven track record and cutting edge technology. We chose Mintegrate as it will provide ViViPOS with an additional revenue stream, no integration fees and ensures our business remains PCI-DSS compliant.” “With the upgrading of ViViPOS to accept mobile payments, our clients will see the direct benefits of the integration including the ability to provide faster and more flexible customer service, reduce any income losses due to transpositional errors that are commonly occurring with traditional EFTPOS terminals and a reduction in the amount of manual reconciliation needed every day.” |
Mint Wireless estimates the estimated value of mPOS transactions in Australia will reach US$7 billion in 2014 with the potential to grow to US$20 billion in 2016.
