My company wants to allow our in-person sales staff to swipe a credit card on an iphone or ipad and persist that credit card in our billing system for use on recurring monthly charges. Does Vantiv offer a solution for this?

This is a good question Tim. I know Vantiv has a few different mobile acceptance solutions, but I'm not sure if any have this functionality off the shelf that securely captures the card data from a mag stripe, vaults it, and allows for a recurring payment without re-keying the card. Vantiv has a few different payment platforms as you may know - are you already a Vantiv customer? If so it would be helpful to know what solution you are using now.
Here is a demo of the Vantiv Mobile Accept solution that runs on our core platform. Vantiv Mobile Accept Demo - YouTube. There is a solution called Mercury Mobile that processes against Vantiv's Mercury Pay, but I don't see recurring payments talked about with either of these.
Let me ask around and see if we can get an answer or find a partner with a mobile POS solution that supports this. (This solution can certainly be built on our platforms, but I suspect you'd prefer something off the shelf) cjennings scottwhite
Hello tspires@layer3tv.com,
We certainly do!
Using our secure 'tokenization' technology, a reference to the sensitive card data can be returned to your POS solution to enable 'card-on-file' or recurring billing functionality.
Please refer to the MercuryPay Platform Integration Guide (page 98) for some additional details on our tokenization technology.
Additionally, we support multiple different API and hardware options which would enable the iOS integration for card-present transaction processing.
We'd love to have a chance to connect with you to discuss the project - please feel free to reach out to me at your convenience and we'll work with you to make this happen!
Regards,
