Expansion of USAT's Portfolio of World-Leading Payment Solutions

NAMA OneShow - USA Technologies, Inc.

By offering Ingenico Group's payment hardware, USA Technologies' customers will have the opportunity to add an EMV contact solution to their cashless payment portfolio. In turn, Ingenico Group would be able to leverage USAT's Quick Connect or ePort® Connect platform for use with its PCI v4-certified, EMV and NFC/contactless unattended payment solution - the iUC285.

"At Ingenico Group, it's our goal to offer merchants the best payment solutions across a variety of verticals and provide consumers with fast, simple and secure purchasing experiences," said Bruce Rasmussen, director of sales, Strategic Verticals at Ingenico Group / North America. "Further, we seek to provide the most innovative solutions to empower merchants, and by working with USA Technologies we're able to meet our objective to expand the most secure payment options to the unattended retail market."

With this combined offering, USAT intends to provide unattended retail operators the prospect of using Ingenico's world-leading seamless payment hardware via USAT's cashless payment network. Merchants could gain access to automatic updates to payment software, settings, security and point-of-sale insight data through USAT's ePort Connect network with the ability to layer on valuable services like consumer engagement, loyalty programs, and payroll deduct.

"By going to market with a global leader and trusted brand like Ingenico Group, we are able to offer vending and other unattended retail merchants with the best-in-class payment solutions, that accept new and emerging forms of payments like EMV, with USAT's ePort Connect suite of cashless payment, consumer engagement and loyalty services," said Michael Lawlor, Chief Services Officer, USA Technologies. "Best of all, with Ingenico Group hardware, our customers would be expanding the payment acceptance possibilities, while we work to increase our presence in new market sectors where USAT's cashless payment technology could be utilized."

The proposed combination of USAT's platform of services and Ingenico Group's hardware could benefit a number of industries in the unattended market including: kiosk, education, retail, hospitality, parking and vending, among others.
