ROAM Data announced ROAMwallet API, an innovative 1-Tap mobile checkout
solution that turns the mobile marketing channel into a mobile sales channel.

 

 

ROAMwallet enables consumers to quickly and securely purchase products using
their own mobile device. It is both a patent pending mobile checkout API
designed especially for embedding secure commerce in mobile apps or ads, and a
consumer mobile wallet that securely stores payment options, receipts and other
data, for consumers to conveniently buy from ROAMwallet-enabled merchants using
1-Tap technology.

 

 

Unlike other wallets stored on the secure element of an NFC chip, this
ubiquitous mobile wallet securely stores cardholder data in the cloud, for use
on any phone, tablet, POS system or computer. ROAMwallet’s patent pending
architecture goes beyond other e-wallets to send level three and meta data
about the transaction back to the merchant, and the API can be easily
incorporated by any mobile app developer to include convenient 1-Tap checkout
in applications or mobile advertisements.

 

 

“We are partnering with ROAM because
the ROAMwallet 1-Tap checkout is what mobile application companies like ours
have been waiting for — the easiest and most secure mobile buying experience
for consumers today, whether on the go, or on the web. We chose ROAM over all
other solutions out there because they designed their secure checkout process
especially for mobile apps, providing us with more security, more data and more
convenience for our customers using virtually any device,” said Leonardo
Riera, CFO of GeeVee, a mobile Skype competitor across different device
platforms.

 

 

The ROAMwallet API for mobile checkout is available now to app developers for
beta. In July, ROAM will make available ROAMoffers, a turn-key solution,
integrated with ROAMwallet, that enables merchants and advertisers to easily
create compelling mobile offers delivered to customers via e-mail or text message
campaigns, banner ads, or print ads with 2D barcodes, Facebook or Twitter. ROAM
reduces the steps a consumer has to take to purchase from a ROAMwallet-enabled
merchant, no longer requiring a “drive to store” or “drive to
web” mentality. With ROAMwallet, purchases can happen quickly and securely
without consumers feeling like they are leaving the application.

 

 

“Mobile commerce is all about convenience. Whether it is making it easier
for a merchant to accept a credit card through an application like ROAMpay, or
by making it easier for consumers to make a purchase on their mobile phone with
ROAMwallet and via ROAMoffers, the more convenient we can make the experience,
the more revenue merchants will generate. ROAM Data is committed to reducing
the friction of commerce, and to that end, improve lives, and we are bringing
secure mCommerce to broad segments of merchants and consumers quickly, easily
and securely,” said Will Graylin, founder and CEO of ROAM Data.
