Direct connections to Visa and MasterCard
New York-based independent ATM deployer, ATM World, is working with payment processing firm, USA Payment Systems, to process its ATMs (view press release). USA Payment Systems was chosen as a result of its track record in the casino industry, reporting capabilities, direct connections to Visa and MasterCard, and ability to customise changes quickly. Over the last fifteen years USA Payment Systems has processed billions of dollars of electronic financial transactions annually for casinos, IADs and financial institutions.
“Their direct connections to Visa, MasterCard and other major networks, and having two live processing centres with mirrored switches were big motivators for us,” said ATM World chairman, Alex Mubarez.
