Verizon Partners with Payfone for Easier Online Purchases
Verizon announced yesterday their partnership with Payfone which will enable their customers an easier online purchasing experience. The new arrangement will allow Verizon customers using their smartphones, tablets, or PCs to make online purchases with an additional secure payment option. Customers can either charge the purchase straight to their Verizon bill or have the option to use other standard forms of online payment.
During an official press release, the Vice President of Verizon’s Marketing division Greg Haller commented on the partnership.
We approach the mobile payments arena from a customer’s perspective. As we move forward, the most important goals will be security, privacy and simplicity. Through our relationship with Payfone, we will be able to quickly offer value to our customers by offering them greater choice and a simple, safe and secure purchasing experience when shopping online from their smartphones, tablets and PCs.
The exact launch date of the new online payment service has yet to be announced.
