Admeris Payment Systems

The new year brings great opportunity for progressive organizations committed to developing new, exciting innovations for existing business processes and operations.  By far, mobile commerce is the most exciting and innovative advancement available to businesses in 2012 and which EVERY organization should add to their toolbox this year.

In fact, one industry sector that has always been on the leading edge of innovation, creativity and design is the advertising industry.  The agency world revolutionized and validated the online medium as a viable and revolutionary channel to drive awareness and lead generation with the capability of "measurement" to validate ROI and campaign effectiveness.

The same industry is now in a perfect position to push the envelope even further with mobile payments.  Admeris has been actively supporting many agencies interested in using our revolutionary secure OneTouch mobile payment platform because it finally moves beyond calls to action for awareness and lead generation to completion of a sale.  This represents a dramatic leap forward for full service agencies interested in expanding their service portfolio and value proposition in a competitve and difficult business environment.

Large brands and retailers are demanding innovative approaches to cultivating new customer relationships "on deck" (handsets) beyond typical branding initiatives.  Both large and small business want to capitalize through smartphones with more sales, better sales conversion, and re-captured revenue that would have been lost in the absence of a mobile payment solution.

Using Admeris' secure OneTouch mobile payment platform, agencies can incorporate QR codes and other marketing tactics to drive "on deck" consumers from initial call to action to a completed sale.  For initiatives that require scale and ease of execution, Admeris' development tooklit enables full-service agencies to implement client-branded Admeris-powered OneTouch payment landing pages to help consumers complete a sale quickly and easily without complex account setup, login, or payment page re-directs.   Mobile web payments are Admeris-rendered payment pages which properly support over 1300 smartphones and feature phones to make user experience fault-proof.  Even better, repeat transactions are simplified by only requiring consumers to enter a CVV or PIN code to make a purchase thereby guaranteeing a seamless mobile use-case which leads to higher sales conversions. For larger clients interested in unique and branded deployments, agencies can use Admeris' in-app payment capability within native applications they build for clients on Android, iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) and Blackberry devices.

If you've been sitting on the fence on how best to proceed, contact Admeris and we can walk you through the best approach to serve your clients.  If you're a full-service shop and want to add mobile payments to your arsenal,  we recommend an Independent Sales Organization (ISO) agreement with Admeris which allows your agency to re-sell our solution to your client list while earning a referral commission on processing revenues over the life of the merchant agreement which your client executes with Admeris.

Now is the time to draw out the battle lines, to plan, to build, to test, and to execute unique conversion models for your clients and to help them capitalize with undiscovered opportunities before their competition does.

We look forward to your call.

As we kickstart the new year, we are confident in stating that mobile commerce is poised to become the breakout category in 2012.  Recent statistics from organizations such as IBM Coremetrics with its Benchmark Reports highlight astounding growth in mobile sales, mobile site traffic and smartphone and tablet penetration from Android and iOS variants, the iPhone and iPad.  Even though the percentages are still smaller for this nascent transaction channel when compared to online e-commerce, the numbers and consumer use-cases cannot be ignored.

Admeris' own data concludes that existing clients in enterprise and medium-to-small sized business are taking advantage of mobile-based transactions in their operations.  In fact, one particular client saw 30-40% of its customer base access incentive-based promotions through smartphones when compared to desktop or laptop personal computers.  Prior to Admeris, they faced great challenges in sales conversion to help them cross the chasm between promotion and transaction through mobile handsets.  Thanks to Admeris' OneTouch platform, the client's customer base was able to instantly respond to repeated offers through a secure and simple OneTouch payment experience that requires no account setup or login to complete and authenticate a transaction.

For merchants of any size, the Admeris OneTouch solution delivers mobile payment simplicity to consumer handsets today without any "heavy lift" requirements from technical/development resources to implement our platform.  If you are sitting on the fence "waiting" for the train to arrive on mobile commerce, we offer one pointed suggestion:  DON'T.  Today, you are in an advantageous position where the data has already proven that (1) consumers are migrating to powerful smartphone-based handsets (2) consumers are buying from their smartphones as evidenced by Cyber Monday and Black Friday 2011 consumer data (3) consumers are demanding convenience, security and ease of use.  Admeris' secure OneTouch mobile payment platform delivers ease of use, convenience and security to merchants and consumers.

Now is the time to deploy mobile payment options to help convert smartphone-driven consumers that are characteristically time-starved and continuously on the go.  Do not wait for your competition to deploy, experiment and migrate their business to support mobile payments  while you sit in a state of paralysis analysis.  You run the risk of leaving your business with nothing more than an urgent and scrambled opportunity to define a mobile strategy to retain existing customers versus growing your base in the wake of fervent competition.

Companies interested in becoming an "Independent Sales Organization" (ISO) for Admeris can contact the company to discuss their goals and objectives, size of their potential customer base, and enter into an arrangement to sell Admeris' Secure OneTouch mobile payment platform.  This is an excellent opportunity for ISO's to promote Admeris' complete end-to-end payment gateway solution for online and mobile commerce to merchant businesses interested in adding additional transaction channels to their business with the power of VISA, Mastercard, Amex and Interac Online capability.  Further, Admeris' PCI-compliant platform offers an integrated merchant reporting console for online and mobile transactions and offers aggressive next day settlements that surpass even the best offerings of "established" brands in the marketplace.

It's a proven fact. Consumers want access and convenience from their mobile handset. Powered by Admeris, merchants can take advantage of a quick-to-market strategy to sell goods or services easily through smartphone browsers with smart-rendering technology to display properly-formatted payment pages on 1300 feature and smartphone handsets.  Later, merchants can build a mobile strategy specific to native apps for iOS, Android and Blackberry using our mobile development kit and developer sandbox.  For more details, visit our Developer Center.

If you are interested in becoming an ISO, please email us at sales@admeris.com or contact us at 1-866-854-9851 ext. 705.
