To date, the financial terms of the transaction have not been disclosed.

The news comes after Fiserv launched a solution with Visa enabling merchants to use mobile devices to accept payments. The service allows businesses to accept PIN-based contactless transactions without the need for a card reader or PIN-entry device.

In addition, the move is expected to boost the worldwide use of smartphones and tablets as POS terminals.

In February, the payments provider also introduced a new POS device called Clover Station Pro for quick and full service restaurants. The solution was designed to facilitate checkout speeds and prevent order errors.
