Wednesday 1 May 2013 07:00 CET | News

Iceland-based multi-brand payment card acquirer Valitor in collaboration with provider of electronic payment services Point has finalised a new piece of software for contactless payments and smartphone mobile payments in Iceland.

Certified by VISA Europe and approved by the Visa PayWave standards, the new software enables merchants to accept payments via contactless Visa cards and also via smartphones where the credit card functionality has been implemented on the SIM card.

The software is currently in experimental runs with selected vendors to ensure proper functionality before the official distribution. All acquirers and service providers that use the merchant POS terminals VeriFone Vx820 and Vx680 from Point can update the POS terminals with this software.
