Global payments launches mobile payment processing solution in Asia-Pacific

Global Payments Asia-Pacific Limited has rolled out a secure GPRS-powered mobile payment service, which provides card acceptance capabilities for merchants in the Asia-Pacific region, said the company in a statement released here on Friday.

Called Global Mobile Pay, the service is now available in Malaysia, Brunei, China, India, the Maldives, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka and Taiwan, Global Payments said.

Global Mobile Pay is a sophisticated card acceptance solution that uses GPRS wireless communication network for merchants who need to accept card payments beyond fixed locations or when traditional line communications do not meet business needs.

"This new offering is ideal for merchants who need to accept card payments away from a retail countertop, such as cash-based delivery service providers or trade show exhibitors," it said.

With the new service, mobile merchants can now accept electronic payments to improve customer service and reduce the cost of handling cash significantly, the company said.

"Global Payments has always been trusted with superior payment processing. Now, with Global Mobile Pay, our merchants are empowered with the best-in-class solution for card payments virtually anywhere," it added.

Through Global Mobile Pay, the company now provides a comprehensive package that includes a mobile payment terminal, SIM card and GPRS network connectivity as well as convenience processing services.
