LEHI, Utah & COLUMBUS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ProPay®, a TSYS® company, announced today that it is further enhancing online customer checkout options with the addition of MasterPass, the MasterCard digital payment solution that simplifies the entire shopping experience for consumers. MasterPass enables consumers to pay with any enrolled payment card, anywhere, using any device.
Enrolling in MasterCard MasterPass is intuitive and simple. Consumers can securely store MasterCard and other branded credit, debit and prepaid card information, as well as certain private label and loyalty cards, along with shipping addresses, all in one place, so that they can be easily accessed during checkout. MasterPass eliminates the need to enter detailed payment and shipping information with every purchase, and simplifies the process of completing a transaction from any connected device.
The online checkout experience continues to be a consumer pain point with shopping cart abandonment rates as high as 74 percent, according to research firm, Business Insider. Approximately $4 trillion worth of merchandise will be abandoned in online shopping carts this year.1 MasterPass makes the shopping experience simple, secure and easy.
“ProPay is pleased to add MasterCard MasterPass as one of its checkout options," said Dave Duncan, president of ProPay. “With the addition of MasterCard MasterPass, ProPay enables merchants with more than ten ways to accept payments so they may conduct transactions anytime, anywhere, in-person, online, and offline in a secure manner.”
“The checkout is simply the means to deliver on a consumer need or want and the more intuitive we can make that process the more satisfied the customer,” said Michael Cyr, group executive, North America Market Development, MasterCard. “We’re honored to partner with ProPay who shares this vision of driving a faster, simpler and more secure checkout experience.”
