New Sign-up Process - payleven Opens Doors to Private Individuals in UK

LONDON, April 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    New state-of-the-art onboarding allows quick registration

    Chip & PIN solution now also available for private individuals (non-businesses)

    Democratisation of ease and access to card payments will change financial world

    payleven(http://www.payleven.co.uk), Europe's technological leader in mobile
payment, today announces two important steps to improve the ease and ability to accept
cards, introducing a quicker and simpler paperless sign-up process as well as opening
payleven to the general public and non-businesses.

    Firstly, payleven today has implemented a state-of-the-art registration process,
utilising latest generation electronic ID check technology. This eliminates the need for
merchants to submit a copy of their ID and proof of address during sign-up and drastically
reduces registration time. With this payleven has removed a key barrier to wider card
acceptance, by replacing the lengthy, paper-based application processes of traditional
card terminal providers - which can take several days to complete and often weeks to get
approved. With the new sign-up process, a payleven account can be almost instantly
approved and finalised in a much shorter amount of time.

    Secondly, from today payleven offers the ability for private individuals to sign up
for card payments. Unlike traditional card terminal providers - who often will not work
with individuals, refusing to accept them as merchants and only accepting businesses -
payleven now offers safe, simple card payments for everyone, allowing both individuals and
businesses to become merchants quickly and easily.

    Both the new onboarding process and private registration will be available from today
in the UK and will shortly be rolled out to payleven's other markets- Germany, Italy,
Netherlands, Poland & Brazil.

    "It is no secret that cashless payment is the future, and the democratisation of card
acceptance is a key element in this evolution," says Alston Zecha
[https://payleven.co.uk/about-us ], COO and founder of payleven. "Today marks a major
milestone for payleven on that journey as we have solved two long-standing problems faced
by the payments industry- designing a simple, instant signup process and empowering
individuals as merchants."

    payleven now offers everyone the ability to accept cashless payments anytime and
anywhere, by delivering a card payments solution which offers top-of-the-line Chip & PIN
security, affordable PAYG pricing, a quick & easy sign-up process and is open to both
businesses & individuals. Now from flea markets to garage sales, from private sales via
classifieds to quickly repaying a friend via card, the possibilities for card payment with
payleven are virtually endless.
