Merchant e-Solutions adds online PIN debit to e-commerce platform
January 21, 2010
Merchant e-Solutions Inc. has announced the addition of an online PIN debit payment option to its e-commerce platform.
"As the popularity of shopping on the Internet increases and the consumer preference for debit expands, merchants are looking for solutions to leverage more cost effective e-Commerce payment alternatives," said Sharif Bayyari, Merchant e-Solutions CEO.
MeS uses Acculynk's PaySecure software-only service for online PIN debit transactions. According to a news release from MeS, PaySecure is now available through a single interface into the Merchant e-Solutions payment platform, or to any merchant as a standalone payment method.
The PaySecure service uses a graphical PIN pad for the secure entry of a consumer's PIN and the PIN pad is presented as a payment option at the merchant checkout when the consumer uses a qualifying debit card. The PIN pad electronically scrambles information for maximum security and powerful encryption and authentication processes are administered before transmission of the PIN through the payment networks.
Merchant e-Solutions is dedicated to supporting online retailers as they compete for a portion of the now more than $600 billion ecommerce market.
MeS's Internet-based services include PCI compliant payment processing for online merchants, including the MeS Payment Gateway and Virtual Terminal, plus Web-based reporting that provides access to over five years of processing history.
