Global Payments Inc., a provider of payment technology services, launched Ingenico Companion Mobile Payment (iCMP) MPOS – a turnkey mobile point-of-sale solution offering full debit and credit EMV and contactless payment acceptance to Canadian merchants.

The iCMP MPOS solution includes a secure Bluetooth-enabled reader that pairs with a merchant’s Apple, iOS or Android device, for secure on-the-go payment acceptance. Through the robust iCMP MPOS app, merchants can manage their businesses on the go, with an in-app inventory catalogue, digital receipts and a merchant portal that provides real-time insights into business operations with detailed reporting.

“As we continue to expand our leading selection of innovative point-of-sale solutions, we’re pleased to offer our merchants a growing number of mobile payment offerings designed to meet evolving business needs for portable payment convenience,” said René Bélanger, President, Global Payments Canada. “Unlike other mobile solutions, the iCMP MPOS supports EMV and NFC contactless credit and debit card acceptance, including Apple Pay, providing our merchants with an off-the-shelf solution that is flexible, simple, secure and will position our customers for the future.”

As a PCI PTS 3.0 and EMV Level 1 and 2 certified solution, the iCMP MPOS complies with the latest payment and security standards for secure payment processing capabilities, designed to encrypt card data at the time of the transaction. According to the company, the iCMP MPOS is an affordable solution for small businesses, offering a flat-rate pricing structure, free EMV- and contactless-enabled reader and no set-up fees.
