As the payments ecosystem becomes more ubiquitous globally, the need for a seamless solution that functions across regions and payment types becomes more important, providing an excellent opportunity for Apriva to meet that need.  With AprivaPay Mobile, businesses have choice beyond what many other solutions offer.  They have the choice to select the partners and processors that make sense for them, while offering their customers the same freedom to choose the payment methods that work for their lifestyles.

We recently announced a certification that takes our partnership with Miura Systems and our AprivaPay Mobile application to a new level.  This is not only our most extensive EMV certification—spanning both contact and contactless EMV payments in addition to PIN debit, Online and Offline PIN—but it builds on our relationships with both Miura Systems and Global Payments, positioning Apriva to expand in global markets.

The new certification to Global Payments with our AprivaPay Mobile application utilizes Miura’s M010 card reader to support 12 transaction types, making this is one of the most extensive EMV certifications to date in the United States.  Not everyone pays the same way, and by offering a breadth of payment options we can provide the preferred payment methods in not just the U.S., but in Europe and the Asia-Pacific, allowing merchants to provide the choices their customers want around the world.  

By encompassing so many payments types across all major card brands, and including MSR transactions and compatibility for Apple Pay®, Android Pay™ and Samsung Pay, we prepare to offer a solution that would seamlessly work in global markets, enabling Apriva to extend our reach in many global markets.

Both Miura Systems and Global Payments have an excellent track record of operating in global markets and make phenomenal partners for us as we position ourselves for this expansion of services.  AprivaPay Mobile is so versatile and easy to use that we want to make sure businesses around the world have access to this solution.

We’re very excited to continue building our relationships with these fantastic international partners and can’t wait to see what the future has in store.

Stay tuned for more news on Apriva’s growth and expansion in new markets!
