Apriva and POS on Cloud Announce Strategic Technology Partnership
Apriva,
the leading provider of end-to-end wireless transactions, gateway
services and secure information solutions, today announced a new
strategic technology partnership with POS
on Cloud, a provider of cloud-based point of sale (POS)
software-as-a-service (SaaS (News - Alert)) supporting the restaurant, retail, and
service industry verticals.
With the partnership, POS on Cloud's point of sale solution and the
Apriva Gateway (News - Alert) will be integrated, enabling Independent Sales
Organizations (ISOs) to provide restaurateurs and retailers complete
solutions combining hardware, software and gateway services. In
addition, POS on Cloud and Apriva will begin offering the combined
solution to their respective ISO networks, providing the channel with an
easy-to-install solution supporting any type of payment which ties to
all backend items, including inventory management, reporting, accounting
and email marketing.
"Our relationship with Apriva allows us to deliver a robust, cloud-based
solution that meets merchant needs for security, scalability, and the
flexibility to accept the payment methods that make sense for their
business," said Dr. Sunny Dronawat, CEO of POS on Cloud. "We look
forward to working closely with Apriva to meet merchant and reseller
needs, as well as expanding the relationship beyond the restaurant and
retail verticals in the future."
POS on Cloud is a cloud-based, premium POS solution that makes it easy
and affordable for merchants to manage and grow their business without
requiring significant capital or time investment. Operating in the cloud
and independent of hardware, POS on Cloud reduces concerns regarding
data storage or loss in the event of a malfunctioning system. In
addition, POS on Cloud provides superior data security such as
end-to-end encryption and tokenization, ensuring customer credit and
debit card information remains protected. Leveraging the Apriva Gateway,
POS on Clud provides merchants the ability to accept a variety of
payment methods.
"Cloud technologies are pervasive, and many restaurants and retailers
already have or are considering a cloud POS solution because of the
efficiency and business value they offer," said Stacey Finley Tappin,
senior vice president for North America sales and marketing
communications at Apriva. "Our relationship with POS on Cloud will
enable us to provide our channel with a state-of-the-art, cloud-based
POS solution that fully integrates with our Gateway. This gives them the
ability to create new revenue streams for their business by introducing
fully integrated hardware, software and gateway services."
Apriva's Integration Services Program allows Independent Software
Vendors (ISVs), and mobile and embedded developers, to easily implement
credit, debit, EBT, loyalty and closed-loop payment processing into
their solutions. Once integrated, applications and POS solutions can
communicate with the Apriva Gateway over a wired or wireless network
providing access to payment processing providers. Apriva maintains
relationships with more than 35 payment processers in North America,
along with all leading wireless carriers, and currently works with more
than 1,000 merchant acquirers and ISOs across the United States and
Canada.
