As the fastest growing leading provider of electronic payments in the United States, RBS WorldPay will market PAYware Mobile through its multiple channels, including its nationwide direct and ISO sales forces and via the web.

"VeriFone's PAYware Mobile provides businesses with simple and secure card processing capabilities using a terrific iPhone App," said Ian Drysdale, senior vice president of product and business development at RBS WorldPay. "This is a unique solution that particularly appeals to both micro-merchants and also to mobile merchants seeking increased functionality and simplicity."

"With multiple sales channels and proven expertise providing payment solutions, RBS WorldPay is well-positioned to market VeriFone's PAYware Mobile card encryption sleeve to both traditional and non-traditional merchants," said Paul Rasori, VeriFone senior vice president, marketing.

VeriFone's sleek and durable card reader slips over iPhone to accommodate card swipes and allow merchants to avoid high-cost "card-not-present" fees. It incorporates a stylus for signature capture and a mini-USB port for charging iPhone while the ergonomic reader is attached.

The PAYware Mobile card encryption sleeve incorporates VeriFone's end-to-end encryption technology, which encrypts each transaction from the time of card swipe until it reaches RBS WorldPay, and ensures secure payment processing. Users also gain access to the PAYware Connect gateway, a fully customizable and reliable gateway service that's ideal for small businesses.
