iZettle, a manufacturer of mobile POS devices for iPhone, iPad
and iPod Touch has announced that a beta version of its card
readers is now available by request of an invitation via the

iZettle works through cloud technology and charges merchants 2.75%
of each transaction made using MasterCard or Diners Club and 2.95%
for American Express payments.
The iZettle app for the handset can work without the POS device, as
the merchant is able to type in the card number manually. In these
cases, there is a fee of £0.10 plus a 3.5% charge when using the
mentioned card networks.
Payments on iZettle are transferred to the user’s bank account
within a working day. The product supports EMV-technology and
complies with PCI DSS, AML and KYC standards, says iZettle.
iZettle assures users that data traffic remains encrypted and that
no data is stored on the device.
