iZettle first mPOS in Europe to offer JCB card acceptance

First to accept JCB cards

iZettle, the mobile payments company, has announced that its Chip & PIN and Chip & Signature card readers now accept Japan Credit Bureau (JCB) cards. iZettle is the first mobile payments provider in Europe that offer JCB cards acceptance throughout the United Kingdom, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Finland.

The transaction fee with JCB cards will be 2.75 %, the same as for all other supported cards, including American Express, Visa, MasterCard, V Pay, Electron, Diners and Maestro.

“We’re proud to add JCB to our accepted cards for our card readers,” said Jacob de Geer, iZettle CEO and co-founder. “Millions of Asian tourists visit Europe every year especially in the summer. Now tourists don’t have to worry about carrying cash and iZettle customers don’t have to turn business away.”
