BridgePay And MagTek Partner To Deliver A Secure Mobile EMV Commerce Solution

BridgePay and MagTek form a technology partnership through the PayGuardian and MobileLINK payment application

BridgePay Network Solutions, a transaction gateway leader providing omni-channel payment application solutions announced their partnership with Magtek, the world's leading supplier of secure payment technology, recently announces a technology partnership with its eDynamo EMV/Magstripe mobile card reader and BridgePay Network Solutions, a major global payment gateway provider. By incorporating MagTek's eDynamo into BridgePay's MobileLINK application by way of their PayGuardian - middleware, MobileLINK customers will have at their disposal a fully brandable mobile payment solution that will support mobile EMV chip and magstripe payments. Additionally, ISVs can take advantage of integrating their POS solution to PayGuardian.

The MobileLINK application suite was developed to provide BridgePay partners with a mobile application certified for Android and iOS based smartphones and tablets. By adding the flexible and secure MagTek eDynamo EMV/Magstripe mobile card reader, and utilizing their PayGuardian PA-DSS offering, MobileLINK is a complete solution built to address the needs and standards of the mobile payment marketplace. The result is ISOs and ISVs have access to an all-in-one, EMV ready mobile payment solution.

"The needs of ISOs and ISVs are vast but the common theme among them is a lack of appetite to manage certifications. To best serve them, we wanted to offer a one-stop-shop, fully brandable mobile solution," explained Rick Taylor, BridgePay CEO, "Now, by leveraging MagTek's eDynamo, we can offer our gateway, mobile app, and the eDynamo to enhance our omni-channel focus in one certified, economical solution that ISOs can brand and resell. Plus, ISVs can easily integrate their apps."

"The available options for mobile EMV offerings thus far are lacking and bringing that combination to market has been a challenge for everyone," said John Arato, VP and General Manager, Retail Solutions for MagTek. "That's why we're excited to partner with BridgePay to bring a secure, certified EMV/magtripe mobile card reader to market, our eDynamo."

The eDynamo is EMV Level 1 and Level 2 contact device that uses Triple DES encryption, DUKPT key management and offers Dynamic Data and Authentication. It is this secure device that can now be launched, via MobileLINK, to secure payments across industries, including retail, restaurants and hospitality. eDynamo helps make MobileLINK an economical, plug-and-play and easily brandable mobile payment solution, ideal for ISOs and ISVs looking to take the headache out of integration.
