'Faster and less expensive implementations'
Datatel Communications, a cloud based, PCI compliant, interactive voice response (IVR) telephone payment provider, is expanding relationships with credit card payment gateways to provide more choices to clients (view press release). The company’s solutions help businesses achieve PCI compliance via an IVR credit card processing solution which removes the handling of sensitive credit card information by sales, service delivery, customer service agents and in-house self-service IVRs.
By adding new payment gateway choices, Datatel aims to allow clients to use their existing payment gateway relationships when implementing IVR credit card payments for products and services. This, the company claims, will reduce implementation costs and accelerate time to market.
“More payment gateway choices, means faster and less expensive implementations,” said Datatel CEO Barnard Crespi. “Having pre-existing credit card payment gateway connectivity options reduces the complexity of implementing telephone payments, as custom integration can be avoided.”
