WorldPay has also announced an update for its Android app featuring a new user interface. The application has also been updated to allow customers to print receipts using a Bluetooth printer. WorldPay is also extending its pilot program, which already boasts several thousand users across the UK, ahead of a full commercial launch in the summer.
WorldPay’s Pay As You Go card acceptance service allows sole traders and small businesses to take card payments on their smartphone.
The WorldPay service works by linking a smartphone app to a separate secure chip and PIN keypad and allows merchants to accept Visa, MasterCard and Maestro debit and credit card payments on the move. In order to accept card payments, businesses need to sign up the service, download the app to their phone or tablet and link the chip and PIN keypad to their device.
In recent news, WorldPay has acquired global card payments company YESpay.
