July 13, 2009
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Hypercom Corp., a global provider of secure payments products and services, today announced that one of Germany's leading retailers with more than 10,000 outlets is successfully using Hypercom's Artema Modular as part of IBM's self-checkout system in five test sales outlets in Bavaria.
According to a news release, the first phase comprises 20 self-checkout systems. Following the pilot, IBM's self-checkout system with Artema Modular will be rolled out to several of the retailer's larger stores in Southern Bavaria. IBM Germany selected the Artema Modular in competition with other global payment providers.
"IBM's selection of Hypercom speaks to the operational efficiency, flexibility and security of our technology and reinforces the leadership level we have established in Europe's fast-growing unattended card payment sector," said Christian Jürs, vice president of sales for Hypercom Germany. "This deployment is a major step forward in support of Germany's retail sector, bringing new levels of speed and convenience to shoppers who want to pay for their purchases quickly and move on to other things."
The Artema Modular, Hypercom's best-in-class unattended card payment solution, was first introduced at the end of 2005 and now can be found in self-service machines in Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and North America.
