Freedom and Advantages for Mobile POS Merchants

Retail/Tip @dvantage Freedom II and MIST Freedom II

Global Payments Inc. and MIST Inc.

For merchants on the go, Global Payments Inc. and MIST Inc. offer a mobile payment solution that leverages Cingular's Wireless network.

Global Payments' Retail/Tip @dvantage Freedom II is an application for wireless terminals intended for use with mobile retail businesses such as outdoor concessions, stadiums and delivery companies.

It allows these types of merchants to accept credit and debit cards for payment anywhere within the Cingular Wireless network. No phone line or AC power is required.

Global Payments said as of November 2003, it is the only processor offering Cingular Wireless support on the MIST Freedom II point-of-sale terminal. The application is available in the United States.

The MIST Freedom II, manufactured by MIST, Inc., is a wireless point of sale terminal with a built-in thermal printer and PIN pad. Its LCD is backlit and displays four lines and 122 x 32 pixels. The device has a three-track magnetic stripe reader, a 32-bit microprocessor and gets its power from a rechargeable built-in battery back.

Global Payments provides electronic transaction processing services to merchants, ISOs, financial institutions, government agencies and multi-national corporations in the United States, Canada and Europe.

MIST Inc.'s Transaction Services division designs, manufactures and distributes wireless, Internet-enabled and traditional wired POS terminals and hosts secure-transactional gateways.
