Palo Alto

VeriFone, a division of HP, has announced that it has shipped more than 9 million payment systems worldwide, approximately three times its closest competitor. Building on this history of success, VeriFone is defining the future of e-payments with:

• Verix, a multi-application platform;
• EMV-certified terminals and peripherals; and
• Innovative technologies that deliver the power and speed of the Internet to the merchant countertop.

The Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) specification body's Level 1certification ensures global interoperability between chip-based cards and terminals worldwide.

VeriFone is among the first to market with EMV-certified terminals and payment applications. "Strong sales of VeriFone products over the years are solid proof that VeriFone solutions meet the existing needs of our many market segments, and prepare our customers for the future," said Pierre-Francois Catte, VP and GM, VeriFone. 

"The widespread need for multi-application devices is driving demand for our Omni 3300 series of payment terminals," said Eric Lecesne, GM, Appliance Payment Operation, VeriFone. 

Demand is expected to increase as the emergence of Internet connectivity at the point of sale and wireless payment-enabled devices drive the need for open, multi-application terminals that allow payments to be made anytime, anywhere.

VeriFone credit, debit and smart card products provide secure, reliable e-payment solutions designed for the multi-lane retailer, petroleum/convenience stores, financial institutions, government agencies and payment services providers. VeriFone is continuing to develop solutions to meet the needs of new industries embracing e-payment.
