New TranSafe® Payment Gateway Service Delivers Lightning Fast EMV Transactions

GAINESVILLE, Fla., April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Main Street Softworks, Inc. today announced TranSafe^®, a comprehensive, secure and easy-to-use payment gateway service for connecting point-of-sale, eCommerce, and mobile applications to leading payment transaction processors including Chase Paymentech, First Data, Global Payments, TSYS, Vantiv, and WorldPay.

Built upon Main Street's powerful Monetra^® transaction processing interface platform, the TranSafe service delivers certified, fast EMV transaction capability with major US processors, plus end‑to‑end encryption and card data tokenization to protect card data traveling through merchant systems. The TranSafe service also supports contactless transactions, traditional magnetic-swipe transactions, and card-not-present transactions for mail order, phone order, and ecommerce.

The TranSafe service accepts transaction data from Ingenico and Verifone card terminals, traditional magnetic-swipe readers, and mobile card readers, and also includes an easy-to-use "virtual terminal" that may be used optionally for entering and for managing transactions and viewing transaction reports.

"Our new TranSafe service offers merchants and software developers a universal, processor-independent payment gateway platform that protects and isolates merchant systems and application software from card data, with our "Lightning Chip" EMV implementation performing EMV transactions in less than 10 seconds," said Steve Cook, the company's vice president of sales. "As a bonus, the TranSafe service utilizes the same application program interface as Main Street's Monetra software, giving merchants and software developers unprecedented flexibility to move seamlessly between the hosted TranSafe service or in-house, Monetra-based transaction gateway systems, as merchant preferences or requirements dictate," he added.

Company representatives will be available April 19–21 in booth 1166 at the Electronic Transaction Association's TRANSACT 16 exposition and convention in Las Vegas.
