New Strategic Partnership to drive Expansion of Mobile Payment

New Strategic Partnership to drive Expansion of Mobile Payment

LUXEMBOURG, July 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

    PAYONE integrates Yapital in its platform / Shop extensions have also been updated  

    Paying online without having to enter your card details over and over again? Mobile
payment offers just that: Not only is it an easy and secure way of paying, but more and
more people are also adopting it. With the integration of the first European cross-channel
payment solution Yapital, PAYONE [http://www.payone.de ] is expanding its range of payment
services and is now offering its customers an additional opportunity to increase the
conversion rate of their online shops. With Yapital [https://www.yapital.com ], users can
pay by smartphone to easily settle payments online, in shops and even by invoice. They
simply scan the QR code and confirm the amount - that's it. When paying online, customers
can also enter their Yapital user name and password at the checkout. All transactions are
secure and carried out in real-time.

    In addition to the PAYONE platform, the shop extensions for Magento, OXID eShop and
Shopware have already been updated to include Yapital in order to ensure that all Yapital
payments are processed smoothly. Another advantage of the virtual wallet Yapital - which
can be funded by SEPA direct debit or credit card - is that the solution offers data
protection in accordance with European banking standards, with data processing taking
place in European data centres.

    "Wallets and mobile payment are gaining more and more fans in eCommerce. Yapital, the
first European cross-channel payment solution, is very interesting for online retailers,
particularly as consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of data
protection. Yapital's approach to designing a contemporary and secure payment
solution offers compelling arguments for PAYONE to enter into a joint venture with them,"
says Carl Frederic Zitscher, Managing Director of PAYONE. Karsten Cornelissen, Managing
Director at Yapital, added: "Mobile payment will become part of consumers' daily routines,
especially when there are many opportunities for payment by smartphone - this is the
reason why integrating Yapital into a retailer's existing payment infrastructure must be
as easy and straightforward as possible. Thanks to our cooperation with PAYONE, we have
gained another strong partner with whom we can make a big leap forward when it comes to
increasing the number of Yapital acceptance points."

    Starting immediately, PAYONE customers can now choose Yapital as one of many other
payment possibilities on the PAYONE platform.
