Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 11: Worldline (Euronext: WLN), a global leader in payment services, has partnered with Mypinpad, a global innovator in card acceptance and authentication software, to fast-track the adoption of secure, software-based payments across South Asia--where mobile-first solutions are essential for scale and inclusion.
By integrating Mypinpad's PCI MPoC and scheme-certified SoftPOS solution, Worldline will enable contactless payments acceptance on Android devices--supporting Visa, Mastercard, and RuPay--without extra hardware. The solution is designed to scale across South Asia, targeting markets with high Android smartphone use but limited access to traditional payments infrastructure.
The joint initiative aims to significantly expand SoftPOS adoption in the region by removing cost and complexity barriers for businesses of all sizes. It also sets the foundation for a broader roadmap of advanced use cases that leverage not only merchants' but also consumers' devices, including Tap to Add, Tap to Pay on Own Device and Tap to Verify, which allow consumers to securely provision cards, verify credentials, or pay--all through their own mobile devices.
Ramesh Narasimhan, Chief Executive Officer, Worldline India, said, "By integrating Mypinpad's SoftPOS solution, we're empowering merchants with a secure, cost-effective, and frictionless way to accept card payments directly on Android devices. This innovation not only boosts scalability but also reinforces our commitment to delivering future-ready digital payment solutions that align with evolving market needs and regulatory frameworks."
Barry Levett, Chief Executive Officer, Mypinpad, said, "This collaboration builds on a long-standing relationship between our two companies and reflects a shared goal to expand financial inclusion and accelerate market access. Worldline's brand, market access, and regulatory trust enable rapid rollout of our mobile-first technology in key markets where they already operate."
By putting intuitive, secure, compliant, and affordable payment tools in the hands of merchants and consumers, Worldline and Mypinpad are helping shape a more inclusive, secure, and connected future of commerce.
