FreedomPay, which provides payment technology for stadiums, hospitality, restaurant, gaming, lodging and retail merchants, has introduced its Pay-At-Table solution with PCI Validated Point-to-Point Encryption (PCI P2PE) and support for EMV chip cards and NFC mobile wallet payments.

The fully integrated solution is powered by FreedomPay’s payment gateway and is available on Ingenico Group’s iWL 258 wireless smart terminal.

With Pay-At-Table, restaurants will be able to accept payments via EMV cards, NFC mobile wallets and even magnetic strip cards for those who don’t have a chip card yet.

The solution is expected to speed up checkout process by up to eight minutes by allowing guests to pay directly from their table.

For point of sale (POS) partners, the solution is available as an integrated toolkit with all the benefits of PCI P2PE, EMV, NFC, digital signature capture, store and forward capabilities.

The toolkit also enables seamless integration into standard workflows and use cases for North American restaurants ensuring that both guests and staff are comfortable as they transition to EMV and NFC.

Another benefit that merchants get from FreedomPay is access to value-added services including loyalty rewards and incentives, dynamic currency conversion (DCC), interactive tablets at the point-of- sale, and business intelligence applications with SKU-level transaction data.

Gregory Boardman, chief technology officer, North America for Ingenico Group, commented, “Ingenico Group’s iWL series enables partners such as FreedomPay to easily integrate their own technology and offer a complete solution that meets the specific needs of their hospitality merchant customers. Using Ingenico Group’s iWL 258 wireless smart terminal, FreedomPay is able to deliver on its own Pay-At-Table strategy with a turnkey, secure solution for accepting EMV and NFC payments tableside.”
