The company has added the two payment systems to its portfolio of supported systems after recently completing compatibility certification.

TransFirst president and CEO John Shlonsky said that the company assists merchants to keep pace with the new developments in payments, so that they can adapt to EMV requirements and leverage new NFC payment and mobile wallet opportunities.

VeriFone Americas president Jennifer Miles stated, "We’re eager to work with TransFirst in providing U.S. merchants a smooth transition as the U.S. payment card industry adopts alternative payments and adapts to the EMV standard that is now accepted virtually worldwide."

Fitted with powerful processor and expandable memory, VeriFone’s VX 520 is a reliable, rugged countertop device and has been designed to handle processing of card payments faster.

Integrated NFC capabilities endorse alternative payments and value-added applications including loyalty or gift card acceptance.

Enabling merchants to process various transactions through multiple connectivity options, the VX 805 is a convenient payment device ready for NFC mobile commerce and EMV.

TransFirst has operations facilities in Aurora, Colorado; Broomfield, Colorado; Omaha, Nebraska; Overland Park, Kansas; Franklin, Tennessee; and Cypress, California.
