Mobile payments

Adyen offers their e-commerce solution for mobile iOS or Android or Windows mobile devices. This allows companies to provide payment methods for customers anywhere around the world. When using Adyen's the companies can offer their customer a one click solution. Companies' small screen consumers can choose to be “remembered” on payment pages by storing their payment details on Adyen's secure platform. From then on, customers fill their shopping cart, go to the check out page and click “pay”.

Point-of-Sale payments

Adyen has launched a mobile point-of-sale. The payment device allows merchants to accept both chip and pin payments from a mobile device – meaning it accepts all credit and debit cards that are widely used across Europe. The Adyen Shuttle offers face-to-face payment solutions, with payment terminals that work directly with a mobile device to receive payments on the go.
