Cash registers may become a relic of the past thanks to technological innovations such as the PayWare Mobile Enterprise for Tablets. Created by VeriFone, PayWare Mobile Enterprise for Tablets is a set of software and hardware designed to turn tablets into credit card processors.
PayWare for tablets comes hot on the heels of the many credit card processing apps and gadgets already being offered. Whereas most of those add-ons and apps are used for small-time purchases, VeriFone is thinking bigger and is targeting larger businesses that rely on physical cash registers and bulky credit card machines. Testing is set to begin this fall, with VeriFone hoping to get their new PayWare available to businesses sometime in 2012.
