Global Payments and Visa launch mobile tap payment solution in SG

Sellers will facilitate payments easily using smartphones.

Global Payments worked with Visa to roll out its mobile tap payment solution in Singapore, which allows sellers to facilitate payments easily using smartphones sans additional hardware investment.

Global Payments’ Mobile Tap solution, which uses Visa’s Tap to Phone (TTP) technology, allows merchants with Android devices equipped with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to accept contactless payments simply by downloading a dedicated app.

“This innovative approach eliminates the need for traditional point-of-sale (POS) terminals and can help facilitate a better consumer payment experience,” read the statement.

Amongst the advantages of the new mobile tap is to empower small medium enterprises with the option of digital payments acceptance at a lower cost.

“Mobile Tap provides merchants and customers with increased convenience and flexibility in conducting transactions,” read the statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
