CYWARE deploys C3 (Credit Card Connect)

CYWare and Freedom Software have just
released our latest product,
Credit Card Connect, better known as C3.

C3 is the first fully integrated,
software based, credit card
authentication system in the country for
retailers.

In partnership with Rustans Department Store
Equitable PCI Bank and IBM, CYWARE
has succesfully integrated IBM's
GSA point-of-sale software to
Equitable PCI's credit card authentication
system.

The results are major efficiency
gains for Rustans: reduced checkout time
for customers, and instant settlement
with Equitable Bank at the end of the
transaction day through automation.

KAHALOAD

CYWare and Freedom Software have launched
the first retail point-of-sale integrated system
for purchasing cellphone/mobile airtime/load.

The product called KAHALOAD, allows retailers
to sell mobile airtime to its customer during
checkout. Sending and confirmation of the
purchased load is fully automated. Furthermore,
each load increment is automatically assigned
a unique SKU, allowing retailers to leverage
their existing I.T. investment for reporting
sales, audit, orders and receiving.

KAHALOAD is currently running in five
retail establishments which includes
SHOPWISE, the first hypermarket in the Philippines.

Mobile Payments - A Reality

CYWare and Freedom Software have launched
the first retail point-of-sale integrated system
for mobile payments. Partnering with Smart Telecoms
and Freedom Software, SHOPWISE
the country's first hypermart, now has the capability
of accepting Smart Money as a tender type in its
point-of-sale terminal.

The Philippines has over twenty million mobile users,
and accepting mobile payments, is no longer a unique
service, but a necessary offering for retailers.
