P owered by transmodus, the latest iteration of
the linked2pay mobile application allows merchants to
capitalize on a built-in global positioning system to
facilitate mobile workforces. Through the app's GPS
system, merchants can now track and monitor the exact
location and time of arrival for each field representative
who makes a delivery or performs work off premises,
according to transmodus.
With "one click" payment acceptance, the app makes it
convenient for field sales personnel to process transactions
securely with their iOS or Android mobile devices in hand,
the company said. In addition, linked2pay is a cloud-based,
bundled solutions platform that combines mobile, online
forms, email and a virtual terminal for acceptance of credit
card and automated clearing house (ACH) transactions.
"I do most of my business in the field, at schools,
interacting with students and parents," said Matt Baltes
of Memory Products, who is involved in school yearbook
sales. "Before I found linked2pay, the tools available to me
for accepting payments could not fit my needs." He said
with linked2pay he was able to add team members to his
account to maximize mobile sales efficiency, and access to
reports and other options have made it possible to conduct
person-to-person transactions with multiple students and
parents in a more efficient manner.
To process payments via linked2pay:
• Field sales representative touches map pin on app
• App retrieves amount and specified data
• Option to add tip, swipe card, process ACH
transaction
• Customer authorizes and signs on screen, signature
stored
• App sends email receipt to customer, updates
merchant's system
"The simple processing of payments has long been a
challenge for anyone in the mobile workforce," said Jay
McShirley, Chief Executive Officer of transmodus. "Our
approach delivers the user-friendly and secure solution
that has been lacking." Merchants pay a flat monthly fee
for unlimited users per merchant account, transmodus
reported.
The certified linked2pay gateway connections include
Vantiv, Total System Services Inc., Authorize.Net, First Data
Corp., among others. "We currently support Level 2 PCI
compliance with a Level 3 project underway," transmodus
stated. "Our certified payment types include e-commerce,
MO/TO, and retail (mobile)." For more information, visit
