MagTek, with Magensa, deliver a complete card-present and card-not-present solution to FaveSalon for their nail salon management system

SEAL BEACH, Calif., July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MagTek, a global leader in payment technology and security solutions, along with its Magensa Gateway Services, and FaveSalon, a SAAS (software as a service) technology company in the nail salon industry, announce the selection of MagTek hardware and Magensa eCommerce Services into FaveSalon's management system.

FaveSalon has developed the Smart Appointment Management System that connects salons, stylists, and consumers to book appointments online, handle SAMS booking, perform SAMS CRM, and accept SAMS point-of-sale (POS). The booking appointment calendar management is exclusively designed to meet nail salon's requirements and works with Google maps and calendar. SAMS POS is app based for Android and iOS and is integrated with the MagTek iDynamo 6 secure card reader authenticator. This combination delivers swift credit card processing in-person, in one-step, and works with Magensa's eCommerce platform.

Nick La, Co-Founder & CEO of FaveSalon commented, "We selected the MagTek iDynamo 6 due to its security, connection reliability, versatility, and ease of integration. Its ability to work across Android and iOS minimizes integration time and was a big part of our decision making."

iDynamo 6 is a secure card reader authenticator (SCRA) that delivers NFC and EMV Contactless, EMV Contact Chip, and magnetic stripe card payments in a small mobile form factor. It is available with a direct Lightning connector for legacy iOS devices or USB-C connection that works with Android, Windows, and newer iPhone and iPad Apple devices.

The FaveSalon's SAMS app is built with a hybrid architecture, where data is stored securely in the cloud for scalability and on premise for top-notch performance and offline mode. This enables a wide array of nail salons at a variety of budget points and locations to use a premium booking app. The app also delivers online, card-not-present, eCommerce payments for faster booking and enhanced consumer experience.

"By selecting MagTek hardware, coupled with the Magensa Payment Protection Gateway and eCommerce services, we are able to use just one vendor," continued Nick La. "MagTek's ability to provide secure hardware and handle both card-present and card-not-present transactions sets them apart. This helped us get to market much faster."

The CRM manages and retains all existing clients and works with the self-service check-in kiosk at the front desk, FaveSalon manufactured a custom enclosure with the iDynamo 6 SCRA integrated securely. This helps combat understaffing while providing an enhanced customer experience.

"We are pleased FaveSalon selected MagTek to provide card reading hardware combined with our Magensa Services," said Andy Deignan, President and CEO of MagTek. "Their app delivers a great user experience in a vertical that is growing for us. It also is a great opportunity for MagTek to showcase that we are more than just a hardware company. Our Magensa Services help speed development."

The Magensa Payment Protection Gateway (MPPG) with Magensa eCommerce solutions allows FaveSalon to handle in-person, card-present payments and online eCommerce payment, tokens, loyalty, and subscriptions programs, all of which work well with this industry. Device integration tools, service integration tools, SDKs, APIs, and sample code are available on magtek.com.
