MasterCard announced that we are one of the 19 MPOS solution providers that meet industry standards and MasterCard best practices at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on the 27th February 2013.

The program is part of MasterCard’s global effort to provide guidance to MPOS solution providers and promote simple and secure transactions when consumers use their debit, credit and prepaid cards to pay merchants that use these devices.

At Soft Space, we are proud that our technology is not only certified amongst the best in the industry, but also part of the trusted solution preferred by the financial institutions. The other payment giants that are listed in the program include Square, iZettle, Elavon and 15 others.

This year has kicked off to a good start – apart from being shortlisted in the Asian SESAMES Awards recently, this recognition by MasterCard signifies that our technology is on par with other verified giants that has been around longer than we are in the mobile payment industry. This serves as a great motivation for us to continue striving for excellence in the year ahead.
