have access to TSYS Merchant Solutions products and services.
TSYS Merchant Solutions provides customisable
payment services that enable credit, debit and prepaid cards at the
cash register or via the Internet.
Mark Pyke, president of TSYS Acquiring
Solutions said:
“We will continue to invest in our merchant
servicing business as demonstrated by this portfolio purchase, as
well as our ownership of TSYS Merchant Solutions and recent
acquisition of TermNet Merchant Services.”
