Voices from Transact 14 – Part 2
n our May 12 issue, we published "Voices of
Transact 14," which contained a portion of inter-
views done by The Green Sheet at the Electronic
I Transactions Association's annual meeting. The
event was revamped this year and renamed Transact 14:
Powered by ETA.
This article contains the second, and final, segment of
those interviews. Thanks to all the busy executives who
shared their goals for their companies, insights into new
products and opportunities, thoughts on how we can do
a better job of securing the payments ecosystem, as well
as on how to navigate the historic changes taking place
in the industry.
AnywhereCommerce executives:
Mitch Cobrin, Chief ExecutiveOfficer
and co-founder
Debra McAteer, Vice President,
U.S. Reseller & ISO Channel
Mitch Cobrin, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of
AnywhereCommerce, had much to be pleased about at
Transact 14. In particular, the company was previewing
its mSuite mobile commerce ecosystem, and it released its
AC CorePay Opened SDK development interface, which
Cobrin said is a secure, reliable tool for developers and
independent software vendors. Additionally, Cobrin
was working closely at the AnywhereCommerce booth
with payment veteran Debra McAteer, who recently
joined the company as Vice President of Sales for U.S.
Resellers and ISOs.
"The mSuite is essentially a three-pronged solution:
gateway, software and hardware," Cobrin said. "It isn't
about hardware; it's a provisioning suite that is processor
and acquirer agnostic. The gateway also has a back-end
merchant portal that can do bulk uploads of merchant
accounts. It has a host of features that are less typical of
gateway infrastructures, and our portal offers every tier
of administration; people with different credentials can
see different things, depending on how the credentials
are set up."
Cobrin said AnywhereCommerce has a strong
relationship with Microsoft Corp. and supports
Windows 8 across devices, including smartphones
