Las Vegas, Nevada, April
18, 2006 – ViVOtech, the leading supplier of contactless
payment solutions, will launch a new contactless sales promotion
– “Tap into the Rewards” - during the Electronic
Transactions Association’s 2006 ETA Annual Meeting & Expo,
April 18-20.
The year-long incentive program,
aimed at Independent Sales Organizations (ISOs) and Acquirers, offers
top-sellers of the ViVOpay line of contactless readers the chance
to drive away in a Porsche Boxster.
To kick-off the “Tap into Rewards”
promotion at ETA, ViVOtech’s contactless cards will be placed
in attendee registration tote bags. The contactless cards will direct
attendees to the ViVOtech booth (#521), where he or she can register
for prizes such as an Apple iPod. Prize drawings will take place
throughout Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday during exhibit hours.
Upon registering at the ViVOtech booth, attendees will automatically
be entered into the “Tap into the Rewards” promotion.
ISOs and Acquirers can also sign-up via the web at: www.vivotech.com/promotion.
“The new incentive further
strengthens our commitment to the ISOs and Acquirers who are key
to taking contactless technology to the next level of consumer acceptance
and availability,” said Mohammad Khan, founder and president
of ViVOtech. “With ViVOtech’s technology solutions,
ISOs and Acquirers will be able to turn contactless rollouts into
a powerful weapon that can generate sales, differentiate products
and gain new customers in profitable new markets.”
ViVOpay contactless readers are easily
added to existing or new point of sale (POS) systems, allowing merchants
to start accepting millions of contactless payment cards or fobs
currently being issued under MasterCard® PayPass™ and
Visa Contactless programs.
ISOs and Acquirers can quickly deploy
ViVOpay contactless readers because they interface with all the
top POS terminals and are certified by 9 out of the top 10 Acquirers
in the United States (Class A and/or B).
Selling contactless payments will
benefit ISOs and Acquirers by:
- Increasing revenue by shifting
cash transactions into electronic payments
- Creating the opportunity to upsell
new technology to existing merchants
- Growing market share with first-to-market
products
- Tapping into cash dominant markets
by reaching highly profitable new segments such as Quick Service
Restaurants (QSR) and convenience stores
ViVOpay products are in stock at
many of the major terminal resellers, including: Bancnet, JR’s
POS Depot, Merchant Masters International, The Phoenix Group, and
TASQ Technology.
