TSYS announced today an agreement with linked2pay to offer TSYS merchants and its partners a feature-packed omni payments solution with more ways to accept payments.

linked2pay allows customers to pay online or by mobile phone using a credit card or ACH with equal ease. Additionally, with linked2pay, merchants may provide their customers other ways to pay to include: mobile, online forms, email, a virtual terminal and a shopping cart checkout.

A cloud-based technology, linked2pay gives merchants access to a secure, single-point login with feature-rich payment acceptance that can be branded. Merchants also gain the convenience and efficiency of consolidated, customizable reporting.

"Large and small merchants across a variety of industries can deploy this payment option easily and quickly," said Chris McNulty, group executive of Sales, Business Development, & Client Relations, TSYS Merchant Solutions. "By bringing credit cards and ACH together seamlessly, our merchants can lower costs and decrease the number of paper checks they accept."

Software providers and resellers can leverage the linked2pay solution at no additional cost, and access the tools they need to deliver the type of payments processing automation suitable for high volume users.

"A merchant using linked2pay gains the benefit of accepting payments using mobile, online form, email, checkout or virtual terminal all in the same, highly flexible solution," said Jay McShirley, chief executive officer, linked2pay. “With linked2pay, a merchant is ready to accept payments immediately following registration, and the integration tools we provide to achieve process and reporting automation minimize efforts on any IT-related project.”
