Ingenico's device is the first EMV-ready payment terminal available on the market to support 3G connectivity.

The iWL250 terminal meets the latest PCI PTS version 3.0 security requirements and is equipped to handle both EMV- and NFC transactions. The certification of Ingenico's terminal helps TNS to continue with its strategic objective to provide merchants and ISOs with the most innovative mobile technology to accept all forms of payments.

"For over eight years, TNS has been one of the leading providers of reliable and secure mobile payments for merchants. Through TNS' partnership with Ingenico, we are offering a differentiated, fully EMV-compliant product to our customers in the U.S.," said David Cronin, senior vice president & General Manager Payments, North America; "The certification of the iWL250 3G wireless terminal affirms TNS' long-standing commitment to provide our merchants with the latest secure, innovative and cost-effective mobile and wireless payment technologies."

Manufactured with advanced merchant functionality in mind, the iWL250 handheld terminal operates on 3G wireless networks, as well as legacy infrastructures and diverse payment processing platforms. The terminal is designed to support traditional magstripe cards, along with newly emerging EMV and NFC dynamic payment options. The terminal uses Ingenico's global dual chip Telium 2 architecture and is fully PCI compliant, facilitating secure, fast and reliable transactions. The iWL250 comes standard with embedded multiple forms of payment processing technologies, which precludes the need for expensive future hardware upgrades.

"As the leading global POS manufacturer, we are very pleased to have the iWL250 3G mobile terminal certified by TNS. Their commitment to deliver the latest mobile and wireless payment processing technology to their vast network of clients, allows our product faster entry into the U.S. market and immediately establishes the iWL250 as a primary wireless terminal choice for ISOs and merchants," commented Rod Hometh, vice president for market development for Ingenico North America.

We're certain that the wide base of TNS' customers will be pleased with this product and its unparalleled performance today and in the future."
