Retail Pro & Mercury Payment Systems Announce Integration
Mercury Payment Systems® and Retail Pro International® today announced their fully integrated, PA-DSS compliant payment processing solution for Retail Pro's point-of-sale (POS) system. The new solution delivers seamless, high-speed payment processing to Retail Pro users in the U.S. and Canada.
The interface was jointly developed by both companies to meet the needs of Retail Pro's diverse customer base. It supports credit, PIN debit, and gift card transactions.
With over 35,000 merchant locations, Retail Pro is one of the largest providers of POS software to small and mid-size retailers.
"The Retail Pro/Mercury integration enables value-added services our retailers can use to grow their businesses," said Mike Bishop, Retail Pro's Director of Business Development. "For example, Mercury really makes it easy for retailers to add a new profit center with a robust gift card program."
With Retail Pro and Mercury, retailers get unlimited free gift card transactions for one store or an entire chain. Online transaction reporting and ACH funds transfer streamlines program management with automated cross-store reconciliation. The integration also enables an internet backup solution, ensuring continuous payment processing regardless of an internet outage.
"We're extremely excited to bring Mercury's integrated payments technology to the Retail Pro community," said Baird Kleinsmith, Mercury's Director of Channel Sales. "The new integration gives Retail Pro users a robust, PA-DSS compliant payment interface. Retail Pro resellers now have access to Mercury's channel partner program with revenue sharing, sales and technical support, and free marketing support."
Mercury will be working with Retail Pro and its resellers to upgrade legacy system users to PA-DSS compliant versions of the Retail Pro software by offering marketing assistance and financial incentives.
