Kofax Mobile Capture SDK Enhances Gift Card
Capabilities
Kofax® Limited (NASDAQ: KFX), a leading provider of software to
simplify and transform the First Mile™ of customer engagement, and
Blackhawk Network, Inc., a leading prepaid and payments network,
today announced an OEM agreement that will enable the patented
Kofax Mobile Capture™ SDK to be integrated within Blackhawk’s
digital services platform. This feature will make it easier to
spend, share and keep gift cards secure and take the friction out
of onboarding new cards and checking card balances.
Kofax Mobile Capture SDK, working within Blackhawk’s digital
services app, enables GoWallet users to simply hover their iOS or
Android mobile device over any gift card to instantly retrieve and
validate balance information, as available, and store that
information within the GoWallet digital wallet.
"Blackhawk Network has developed strong relationships with major
retailers and payment systems which gives it a competitive edge in
supporting digital wallets," stated Drew Hyatt, Senior Vice
President of Mobile Capture Applications at Kofax. "Kofax Mobile
Capture adds valuable user functionality to GoWallet and to
Blackhawk Network’s digital platform, and benefits Kofax by adding
Blackhawk to our growing list of mobile industry leaders.”
"Kofax’s capture solution enables our customers to easily place
their cards into GoWallet or another mobile wallet using the
Blackhawk digital services platform," commented Tomas Campos,
General Manager Digital & Emerging Services at Blackhawk
Network. "Working with companies like Kofax provides our innovative
solutions even more practical implementations in the digital wallet
space.”
GoWallet is a free online and mobile service that makes it easy
to keep all your gift cards in one place and within easy reach
anywhere you go. Create a GoWallet account to start managing and
tracking your gift cards in one secure location through the
GoWallet mobile app which is easily accessible while you are on the
go.
