BluePay and ID TECH announced the release of an integrated EMV processing solution.

NAPERVILLE, IL, UNITED STATES, February 27, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- BluePay, a leading gateway and payment technology provider, along with ID TECH, a designer and manufacturer of a wide range of payment products and components, announced the release of an integrated EMV processing solution that seamlessly operates with the existing Virtual Terminal or any BluePay hosted or merchant payment form using ID TECH's patent-pending Augusta S reader.

"Merchants who manually enter credit card information into a Virtual Terminal or hosted payment form, can now lower their chargeback liability by using an inexpensive, efficient and simple way to accept EMV chip cards," said Jeff Punzel, Senior Product Manager at BluePay. "The Augusta S offers industry-compliant instant EMV readiness without the need for a complex terminal-based solution. All capabilities are built into the payment gateway, avoiding direct integrations to EMV devices."

Certified for use with the BluePay Payment Gateway, the Augusta S reader is a user-friendly "plug and play" solution offering EMV compatibility and a magnetic stripe reader, with no need for driver software.

BluePay's certification of the Augusta S with First Data brings a cost-effective EMV solution to merchants of all sizes, in a simple-to-use and compact form. As a PCI-certified SRED (secure reading and exchange of data) device, Augusta S meets the industry's highest standards for security.

"Merchants will appreciate Augusta's simplicity, low cost, and super-fast processing time," said ID TECH's Product Manager, Vince Steffano. "Just plug in the Augusta and it works; there's no setup. It's one of the fastest and smartest EMV devices on the market!"
