NEW YORK, April 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CardFlight, the leading provider of mobile point of sale (POS) technology, announced at TRANSACT 14 in Las Vegas, NV today the launch of SwipeSimple, a turn-key solution that empowers credit card processors, merchant service providers, ISOs, agents and other resellers to offer a mobile POS product to their merchants.

SwipeSimple is the first mobile POS offering that provides 100% free co-branding, allowing resellers to promote their brand throughout the merchant experience at no extra charge. The SwipeSimple solution includes:

Encrypted card readers
Payment acceptance applications for iOS and Android devices
A real-time reporting and admin dashboard for merchants
Reseller portal for easy onboarding and portfolio management
Payment gateway that supports virtually all major processors

The card readers, mobile applications and merchant dashboard website all feature branding customized to each reseller.

"To stay competitive, ISOs and others who sell credit card processing services need to offer a mobile POS to their merchants," said Derek Webster, Founder and CEO of CardFlight. "We repeatedly heard frustrations with existing mobile POS solutions in the market when speaking with ISOs and their agents. Based on their input, we've created a product that features an elegant and simple user experience, without the pain points and lack of customization faced with other solutions."

CardFlight provides the SwipeSimple technology to distribution partners, rather than soliciting merchants directly. Merchant service providers and independent sales organizations have a number of advantages, including existing relationships with merchants, the ability to provide in-person and telephone support, and the flexibility to customize merchant services to the unique needs of each merchant.

"We're excited to help ISOs provide a high-quality merchant experience through our product," said Webster. "CardFlight's mission is to be the leader in turning tablets and smartphones into payment acceptance devices. The launch of SwipeSimple is another step forward, allowing resellers to offer their merchants a customized mobile POS without having to build it themselves."

SwipeSimple was launched at TRANSACT 14, the largest annual event hosted by the Electronic Transactions Association, an international trade association representing companies who offer electronic transaction processing products and services. CardFlight is located at booth #661B in the Mobile Pay Zone, and is also a finalist for the ETA's Technology Innovation Award.
