AnywhereCommerce Launches Walker C2X mPOS Reader For EMV And Apple Pay

AnywhereCommerce, a global payments solutions provider, announced the availability of its next generation Walker C2X mPOS card acceptance device for mobile platforms. Walker C2X is compatible with all major mobile operating systems, and provides merchants with the ability to accept EMV Chip-and-Signature and Apple Pay transactions, as well as magnetic stripe cards. The new product is available for immediate shipment from AnywhereCommerce.

“The growing popularity of Apple Pay among consumers underscores the need for merchants to implement convenient and secure payment methods. In addition, the advent of EMV cards, combined with the fraud liability shift, has escalated the need for versatile acceptance solutions that can provide merchants with all of the necessary modalities to accept card payments,” said William Nichols, president and chief executive officer for AnywhereCommerce. “AnywhereCommerce has built its reputation on delivering reliable, high-quality mobile point-of-sale solutions. Walker C2X continues our company’s leadership in this market by offering a solution that easily and affordably addresses the latest payment requirements.”

Walker C2X supports OTA (Over-the-Air) download capabilities via a Bluetooth interface to the paired device. Versatility, affordability and ease of implementation make this a go-to product for mobile payments.
