OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--Wirca, Inc., a leader in mobile commerce payment applications, today announced that it is teaming with MICROS Systems, Inc.
[NASDAQ: MCRS]
to offer a cashless, mobile-phone initiated payment option for use in the MICROS 3700 and 8700 systems.
The solution, made possible by Wirca's PocketChange(TM) software, provides crucial benefits of security and convenience for both diners and restaurateurs. Based in Columbia, MD, MICROS is a leading provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality industry. When the diner is ready to pay his or her bill, it takes just a few seconds to use a mobile phone for the Wirca network to authorize a transaction. In just a few more seconds, the restaurateur completes the process at the MICROS 3700 or 8700, and the diner may leave. The transaction is more secure for the diner since a credit card does not have to be provided to a server and nothing is left behind at the restaurant. And the Wirca-MICROS combination saves valuable time for both diners and servers. "We are excited to become a MICROS Business Partner and to offer our PocketChange(TM) solution to the MICROS community and dealer network. Our software- based solution has been designed for ease of installation either remotely or on-site. This application works with every mobile phone and does not require the consumer to learn anything new, as s/he just needs to dial a phone number," said Howard Gerson, president and founder, Wirca, Inc. "MICROS is pleased to offer the advanced mobile phone payment technology that Wirca has developed. Rarely do you find a payment solution that protects both the consumer and the merchant from fraud," stated Ed Rothenberg, Vice President of Restaurant Products, MICROS. About MICROS Systems, Inc.
