CardSpring Partners With VeriFone For Card-Linked Services

CardSpring has announced a partnership with VeriFone for card-linked services integration for any POS system interfaced with VeriFone’s PAYware Connect (PWC) gateway, the companies announced in a release.

The deal lets retailers and developers use CardSpring’s API to create card-linked services without making changes to existing POS infrastructure and without changing shopper’s purchasing behavior.

“Enabling innovation at the point of sale adds a new layer of complexity for today’s retailers,” said David Talach, vice president of Strategic Partner Development for VeriFone. “For 30 years, VeriFone has helped find real-world applications for game-changing concepts and has eased the complexity burden of integrating new ideas into retailers’ existing infrastructure, so they can focus on creating new experiences for the customer.”

The move is also significant for Foursquare, which partnered with CardSpring and First Data earlier this year.
