EMV-certified Solution Supports Features
Necessary for Lodging Sector
Equinox Payments today announced that Merchant e-Solutions has
launched Class A support for its Apollo terminal, marking a
milestone as the first acquirer to fully address the payment,
onboarding and service needs of small lodging operators.
“Gaining the full support of Merchant e-Solutions underscores
the importance of delivering EMV-certified solutions through
valuable channel partners,” said Rob Hayhow, vice president,
Equinox. “Sales reps, bank partners, ISOs and independent agents
can now market Apollo terminals to small business owners with
complete confidence, knowing that the solutions are fully backed by
the terrific customer care team at Merchant e-Solutions.”
“We’re excited to launch a full Class A environment to support
Equinox’s EMV-certified Apollo solution to our partners as they
look to upgrade their clients with new technology,” said Bruce
Kirst, executive vice president, Merchant e-Solutions. “Chargebacks
related to the EMV liability shift can really add up, so it’s great
to have a solution that addresses the unique features needed by
merchants in the lodging industry.”
Apollo’s all-in-one application supports retail, restaurant, and
lodging environments. It has been certified to support Visa’s Quick
Chip and Mastercard’s M/Chip Fast processing, which allows EMV card
entry to be as fast as a swipe.
