The application is available as a free download from Apple’s App Store. PayFox can process Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express credit and signature debit cards. Merchants that have the iPhone 3G/3GS or iPhone 4 can use a cardreader that allows them to swipe customers’ cards rather than key the card information manually. The application is incorporated into TransFirst’s TransAction Central payment gateway.
“TransFirst is excited about the launch of PayFox, as it opens up a new sales market for our clients and a new way for our merchants to accept payments,” says Craig Tieken, director of product for TransFirst. “PayFox users will get the same flexible payment processing service and industry-leading support that all TransFirst merchants have come to expect. PayFox is just the first of many mobile products and services that we will be introducing; we are committed to building out a suite of best-in-class solutions serving the mobile payments arena.”
