15-11-2005 Citadel Commerce launches a revolutionary payment solution

SecureSwipe is a revolutionary new device that facilitates PIN debit and swiped credit card purchases from home.

The SecureSwipe PIN pad is a hand held device containing a keypad and LCD display, which interfaces to a consumer's PC via USB technology.

The device utilizes VPN tunneling technology to transmit fully encrypted PIN blocks to Citadel's data center, making it possible for consumers to purchase myCitadel Wallet e-money using any bank issued ATM PIN debit card, just as they would at a retail location, or making purchases by swiping their credit cards.

The company launched SecureSwipe at the European Interactive Gaming Expo in Nice, France, aiming to offer a product that will reduce fraudulent activity by ensuring cards are present at point of sale.
