“We are thrilled to be selected as the preferred softPOS provider for Shift4, delivering a cutting-edge, truly secure, and scalable payment acceptance experience to the hundreds of thousands of merchants in their network,” said Sam Shawki, CEO and cofounder of MagicCube. “i-Accept takes the complexity out of moving the checkout experience beyond the cashier’s desk and enables merchants of all sizes – from the smallest to the largest ones, with sophisticated backend and compliance needs – to offer better shopping experiences to their customers with seamless Tap-to-Pay on any Android device, including phones, tablets, and touch screens.”

i-Accept empowers merchants of all sizes to accept contactless transactions using payment cards and mobile wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay, and it even adapts to local card schemes. It also allows for secure PIN capture on the device screen without the need to scramble or shuffle the PIN entry device keys, making the transaction experience seamless and convenient for consumers.
