Europes Square, iZettle, Is Coming To Android, Testing First On Samsung Devices In Sweden
A big development today for iZettle, the "Square of Europe" that wants to become the biggest mobile payment platform in the region. It is now extending its dongle-based service Android devices, to add to a service that already works with the iOS-based iPhone and iPad. The company tells me that the first step is a test phase on select Samsung devices in its home market of Sweden, "but our ambition is to make iZettle available to Android users across all markets where iZettle operates." iZettle says that in launching on Android, it will become the first company to provide a mini chip-card dongle for Android devices, the prevalent smartphone OS platfrom, installed on some 60 percent of all devices.iZettle's service is currently testing on Samsung Galaxy S II, SIII and Galaxy Note devices, and comes just one month after the company announced $31.4 million in Series B funding as well as the launch of an API that lets third-party developers embed the iZettle payments service into their own apps.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/5T5wVa8oGH0/
