"The VeriFone GlobalBay App is central to our continued efforts to provide the best customer experience in the industry," said EMS CEO Will Manzer. "This solution provides us with the flexibility to deliver the right product and activity content where it's needed - while working with customers."

"No longer are we constrained by square footage as to what we can sell," said Scott Barrett, vice president of ecommerce with EMS. "Utilizing this service from VeriFone enables us to provide consumers with all our products on hand in the store and online."

The VeriFone GlobalBay Retailing App for iPad offers highly configurable features to meet each retailer's unique needs. The App improves the interaction between store associate and consumer while enhancing the overall in-store selling experience. VeriFone's GlobalBay SaaS offerings empower retailers to go live fast and easily scale the solution to optimal levels while avoiding costs and complexity typically associated with custom solutions.
