Business Wire
Implements ePort Interactive and ePort Connect®
Platforms with Premium Support Services
USA Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:USAT) ("USAT"), a payment
technology provider of cashless and mobile transactions in
self-serve retail, today announced a strategic partnership with the
Colorado-based Premier Services, Inc., adding to its expanding list
of customers committing to a fully-connected cashless operation.
USAT is now the company’s single cashless payments provider for all
credit, debit, mobile and loyalty services.
USAT is currently deploying the ePort Interactive on ePort
Connect Services Platforms on 500 of Premier Services’s vending,
coffee and micro-market kiosks throughout the Denver region. This
deployment will result in connecting 100% of Premier Services’s
machines to USAT’s ePort Connect services. By transitioning to 100
percent cashless, Premier Services aims to better align its payment
offerings with its growing base of customers seeking to pay with a
tap (via smartphone), click or swipe.
“For nearly fifteen years, we have centered our business on
bringing our customers the best service possible,” said George
Yost, President, Premier Services, Inc. “The pervasiveness of the
smartphone has given us a new way to engage with our customers at
the point-of-sale, which in turn is giving us the data we need to
foster long-term relationships. USA Technologies was the best and
only choice for this journey.”
As an ePort Interactive customer, Premier Services has access to
what we believe to be the industry’s most advanced cloud-based
interactive media and content delivery management system in the
small-ticket retail industry, enabling the delivery of nutritional
information, providing remote refunds, and creating
multimedia-marketing campaigns, among other consumer engaging
features. In addition, Premier Services is also leveraging USAT’s
Premium Support Services to, among other things, ensure effective
deployments of USAT's cashless technology, and obtain installation
and marketing support and access to USAT's Knowledge Base data.
“Our cashless payment solutions make it possible for companies
like Premier Services to stay in front of the payment preferences
of consumers by giving them the option to pay with whatever payment
method that is on hand,” said Maeve McKenna Duska, Senior Vice
President of Sales and Marketing, USA Technologies. “In addition to
taking our customers cashless, we believe we can ensure our
customer’s success by providing insights into who their consumers
are, what they are buying and how they are paying for it,
facilitating better engagement and loyalty in self-serve
retail.”
