I-Phone Swipe! With Payware!
Wherever an Apple iPhone can go, and wherever your business
takes you, you'll be able to
offer your customers secure
credit card transactions.
Q: What do I need before I can start taking payments with
PAYware Mobile?
A: You'll need an iPhone 3G or 3GS and I will provide you
with the merchant account and
Payware account.
Q: PAYware Mobile is currently offered only for the iPhone
3G or 3GS. Are there plans to
offer the solution on other
devices such as BlackBerry,
Android or Windows Mobile?
A: VeriFone understands the need to offer PAYware Mobile on
other smartphone platforms. We
have plans to bring the solution
to Blackberry, Windows Mobile,
and Android in the near future.
Q: What are the benefits of using PAYware Mobile?
A: PAYware Mobile allows you to securely accept credit cards
- anywhere, any time - on your
iPhone. Never lose a sale
because of the inability to
accept credit cards and no bulky
equipment to lug around.
(Although I recommend a manual imprinter for receipts until a
compatible printer is available)
Q: How does it work?
A: The PAYware Mobile software application handles the
communication between our secure
payment gateway, PAYware
Connect, and your device. The
app works in conjunction with
PAYware Connect and offers a
variety of benefits such as
transaction reporting and
VeriShield Protect data
encryption.
The iPhone credit card
encryption sleeve installation
is easy. The sleeve simply plugs
into the iPhone dock connector
and cradles the phone.
Downloading the application is
easy as well - iPhone users can
simply download it from the
iPhone App Store as they would
any other app. The PAYware
Mobile application is free.
Q: Where do I buy the card encryption sleeve and the
application?
A: The PAYware Mobile card encryption sleeve is
available through me, the
application is available on the
App Store.
Q: What payment types does the application support?
A: The PAYware Mobile application supports credit card and
"check" card transactions.
Q: What type of iPhone models does PAYware Mobile support?
Does PAYware Mobile support
iTouch?
A: Currently PAYware Mobile only works with the iPhone 3G and
3GS models. At this time it is
not backward compatible with
older iPhone models or the
iTouch. By combining the PAYware
Mobile payment application with
an iPhone and card encryption
sleeve, the device becomes a
fully functional payment
solution.
Q: Is the PAYware Mobile payment application secure?
A: Yes. Like all VeriFone products, PAYware Mobile goes
through third-party testing and
validation. PAYware Mobile is
validated against the PCI SSC's
(PCI Security Standards Council)
strict regulations. The PCI SSC
sets the standards that payment
system vendors must follow when
developing hardware and
software. The PAYware Mobile
software application is PA DSS
1.2 (Payment Application Data
Security Standards) approved by
the PCI SSC. As part of the
security standards, your
customer's account information
is truncated on all data fields
and reports.
In addition, PAYware Mobile when used with the credit card
encryption sleeve provides
"end-to-end encryption" of all
card holder information. This
exclusive PAYware Mobile feature
literally protects your
customers information at the
exact instant it is swiped
through the sleeve. There is no
more definitive security that
you could offer your customers.
Q: What is end-to-end encryption, and why is it important?
A: Security is paramount at VeriFone, which is why we've
built industry-leading
technology into PAYware Mobile
from the start. End-to-end
encryption is used to protect
your customer's card information
the instant you swipe their
card. The card data is encrypted
in transit to your credit card
processing company. This
prevents sensitive card data
from ever entering the iPhone or
being intercepted in-transit.
Q: Can I print a receipt for the customer?
A: PAYware Mobile does not include a receipt printer. However
you can easily configure
customized receipts to be
emailed to your customer. A
record of the transaction is
accessible in the application
and the PAYware Connect online
portal, where you can reprint
receipts and view transaction
history.
Receipts contain all necessary
information required by payment
processing regulations. The
headers and footers of the
receipt are customizable via the
Merchant Portal on the PAYware
Connect gateway.
Q: Is PAYware Mobile available without a contract?
A: The PAYware Mobile credit card encryption sleeve is
available free with a two year
contract. However, there are
pricing and contract options
available to meet your needs.
When you set up your merchant
account, I will provide you with
the best options to meet your
business needs.
Q: Can I include a tip with a sale?
A: Adding tips is easy. You can enter a specific amount or
the application can calculate
the tip based on a percentage of
the sale.
Q: What about sales tax?
A: PAYware Mobile includes the ability to specify what tax
percent to use for each sale.
This can be changed on the go,
since tax rates vary from place
to place.
Q: Is the PAYware Connect gateway fee charged/billed
separately?
A: Because PAYware Mobile works in conjuction with a merchant
services provider, the payment
gateway service provided by
VeriFone will be in addition to
your normal card processing
rates.
Q: Am I required to use VeriFone's PAYware Connect payment
gateway?
A: PAYware Mobile works in conjunction with the PAYware
Connect gateway, and does not
currently support other payment
gateways.
Q: What happens when you receive a call during a
transaction?
A: When a call is received during a transaction, the user
will be prompted to answer or
decline the call. After the user
completes the call, they are
prompted to reenter their
password for the application and
the transaction can be resumed.
Q: How do I configure PAYware Mobile?
A: We provide a comprehensive user guide to take you through
installation, setup, and use of
the application, card encryption
sleeve and the merchant portal
on the payment gateway.
