This technology is available on any NFC-enabled device and offers a quick and secure experience for merchants.
DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Contactless—Talus, a leading provider of integrated payment technology, has partnered with Ingenico, a global leader in payment acceptance solutions, to bring a SoftPOS solution to the North American market. This initiative showcases a hardware-free Tap-to-Pay capability, enabling merchants to accept secure contactless payments using only an NFC-enabled mobile device.
By leveraging Ingenico’s technology, Talus’ new platform will now enable merchants to start accepting payments within minutes, reduce logistics and hardware costs, and incorporate the instant activation of a SoftPOS solution. Compliant with PCI CPoC and Tap-to-Phone framework, this ensures secure transactions for card taps and digital wallets. In addition to accepting payments, the application empowers business owners to manage inventory, track customers, and view real-time insights, all on a mobile device, backed by a full web version.
The partnership will integrate SoftPOS for any NFC device, creating a flexible solution no matter the business environment. This solution is ideal for retail, services, and food & beverage businesses that prioritize secure, flexible, and rapid point-of-sale.
“Together with Ingenico, we’re redefining what payment acceptance can look like,” said Talus CEO Kim Fitzsimmons. “By uniting our capabilities, we’re delivering a modern feature-rich payment experience that strips away traditional POS complexity. Business owners now have an intuitive, secure, software-driven solution that’s ready to go whenever and wherever they are.”
“Our shared vision in this partnership is a seamless and secure payment solution for growing businesses that benefits the customers as well,” said Ingenico Vice President of USA New Markets Expansion James Lloyd. “Every transaction should feel reliable and approachable, anticipating payment needs through an innovative method.”
Through this partnership, Talus and Ingenico will continue to reshape the future of payments. This joint strategy will improve transaction operations and help retailers serve more customers by providing a cost-effective, safe, and dependable solution for checkout optimization. Additional strategic national partnerships to drive adoption and features to streamline back-office work for business owners are in development.
