San Diego (March 20, 2005) …Semtek Innovative Solutions Corporation, the leading developer of mobile card-reading technologies, announces that Cardservice International, a subsidiary of First Data, is offering Semtek’s Mobile Swipe solution to retail merchants through its nationwide network of sales agents.

Mobile Swipe enables retail merchants to wirelessly accept credit card payments via their cellular phones from mobile/remote sales locations. Companies with mobile business operations require the ability to accept credit card payments from remote locations.

“Since making our Mobil Swipe solution available through Cardservice International, we’ve begun to see new business come our way as their large sales force introduces our products to merchants throughout the country,” said Steve Cochran, Semtek’s Vice President of Business Development. “We’re delighted that one of the nation’s top ISO for merchant payment transactions has selected Semtek’s Mobile Swipe to be marketed by their Agent ISO channel.”

Semtek’s card readers connect through wireless handheld devices, such as PDAs and cell phones, and support industries requiring mobile commerce applications, on-site lead retrieval, and immediate identity verification. Mobile Swipe card readers are designed to work with top branded devices from such companies as Symbol, Intermec, Hand-Held Products, Palm, Hewlett Packard, and Nextel. Semtek’s solutions are designed and priced to enable organizations of all sizes to be equipped with a cost-effective, secure means of accepting payments from remote locations. Competing products in the industry often require substantial investments in equipment, eliminating opportunities for small remote business operators.
