Worldline, a European leader in the payments and transactional services industry, announces its reseller partnership with Powa Technologies, an international commerce specialist. With this agreement, Worldline becomes a preferred reseller of PowaPOS solutions in Europe, Middle East and Africa, offering the powerful and pioneering PowaPOS T25 and PowaPIN mPOS solutions to extend its cross-channel payment terminals range for merchants and banks. 

With PowaPOS, the next generation in retail point-of-sale solutions, Worldline enriches its own POS terminal range to offer its customers the latest, state-of-art equipment. Worldline’s strong presence in France, Belgium and Germany will expand Powa’s European market share. 

The PowaPOS T25 is the most advanced, ergonomic POS solution available, designed specifically for the tablet. It features the T25, an industry-first and multiple patent-pending all-in-one tablet-based POS system, along with the PowaPIN card reader, universal tablet OS support, an advanced Server and Developer Program. The T25 is the first to fully integrate all major POS peripherals and applications, including a thermal printer, barcode scanner, cash drawer, and EMV-ready card reader, delivering on the growing market demand for tablet POS. PowaPIN is the world’s smallest chip-and-pin acceptance device. 

Worldline already has a unique portfolio of products and can now strengthen its reach. Shaun Burger, Worldline Senior Vice President, Global POS Terminals explains: “Our partnership with Powa creates a new channel to accelerate our reach and strengthen our solutions. It is important for us because it will enhance our POS and mPOS offerings, as cross channel payment has become a crucial advantage for merchants.”

Our products are complimentary and together we will be able to win new clients. I’m confident that the synergy with Powa will enable us to continue developing more innovative solutions, further enhancing the customer experience,” continued Burger.
