TIDAL boosts global expansion, peak transaction processing capabilities with exclusive Ingenico ePayments partnership
04 Mai 2016 - 8:03AM
Ingenico ePayments, the online and mobile commerce division of
Ingenico Group, today announced that the innovative music and
entertainment platform, TIDAL, selected Ingenico ePayments as its
exclusive partner to help process increasing demand for its
services and optimize the payment experience for its customers.
As the exclusive launch platform for some of the world's biggest
artists, TIDAL required a partner that could support its rapid
international growth, while also helping the company process the
thousands of transactions per second ('tps') that are generated by
high-profile, exclusive album releases such as Kanye West's 'Life
of Pablo' and Beyoncé's 'Lemonade'. Together, Ingenico ePayments
and TIDAL offer TIDAL users around the world a wide range of
payment options and currencies, tailored to their local payment
preferences. TIDAL works on smart phones, tablets and computers,
and delivers an optimized user experience on any device, even at
high volumes.
With this exclusive partnership, Ingenico ePayments supports
TIDAL's goal of bringing music lovers and artists closer together,
by providing a seamless payment experience that benefits both.
Leveraging Ingenico Connect's suite of integration tools, TIDAL had
the flexibility to select a simple and secure integration method
that ideally fit their needs. Through the connection to the
Ingenico ePayments platform, TIDAL can now provide a simple and
fast checkout experience even at peak times such as album launches,
and offer a wide portfolio of international payment products.
"We are thrilled to provide TIDAL with credit card and
alternative payment processing services, and to work with them to
create the best possible checkout experience for their
customers," said David Jimenez, Vice President Global Sales
& Marketing for Ingenico ePayments. "Their success
creates a very demanding payments environment with huge peak
volumes, so we're very proud to have been selected as their
exclusive payment partner."
