WorldPay announced the launch of its mobile Chip & PIN payment service, that enables card payments for small businesses and mobile workers; WorldPay Zinc.
The new service is quick and easy to set-up. Businesses and sole traders can simply apply online at www.worldpayzinc.com or download the WorldPay Zinc app on their smartphone or tablet and apply through the app. All they need then is the Chip & PIN keypad which they can order online when they apply or alternatively buy for £59.99 in-store at John Lewis.
It takes less than five minutes to apply for a WorldPay account and users can be up and running, receiving secure payments and reviewing full payment details on the move usually the very next business day.
Geraldine Wilson, Managing Director, WorldPay Zinc, commentes: “We are really excited to launch this great new service which will make life easier for the UK’s mobile tradespeople, small businesses and the UK consumer. We have been testing out the service for six months with over 3,000 small businesses, and the feedback has been very positive.
These businesses are reporting increased revenues with significantly higher average transaction values for each sale; on top of this, we’re also hearing that these tradespeople are spending less time chasing customers for payment and trekking to the bank to pay in cash takings. They’re also enjoying being able to portray a more professional image and provide better service to their customers.”
Wilson continued: “As consumers, we’ve all been in that awkward situation where you haven’t got enough cash on you to pay for something and card payment isn’t accepted. It’s embarrassing and frustrating. Our aim is to be the payment partner of choice for small businesses and sole traders, supporting the growth of this vital part of the UK economy that employs over 6 million people.”
