GlobeSet Inc., the world’s largest OEM provider of software solutions for electronic commerce, continues its pace of expanding its global reach for its secure payment products and services for Internet-based transactions by forming an alliance with Greece’s Informer.
The OEM agreement entitles Informer, one of the largest IT integrators in Greece, to license and support GlobeSet’s transaction and payment solutions for secure electronic commerce over the Internet. As GlobeSet develops additional transaction applications in 1999, it will license its technology to Informer.
Informer was established in 1979 and focuses its efforts in the government, banking, European Union and private enterprises sectors. Within the banking sector, Informer has a specialized department staffed with people with years of experience in the financial sector who can provide total consulting and software solutions for Internet banking and electronic commerce. Apart from its success in the Greek domestic market, it has developed significant activity abroad with successful installations in multinational groups of companies. Informer’s personnel are in the position to offer, supply, install and support turnkey solutions for any market sector utilizing its vast expertise in IT and communications.
“GlobeSet’s success in the global marketplace will be measured, in part, by the success of our OEM partners,” said Dennis Jolly, Vice President, Sales, Marketing and Operations, GlobeSet. “We are confident that our relationship with Informer will be fruitful as we couple the industry’s only complete suite of SET(TM) compliant and SSL software solutions for secure electronic commerce with Informer’s knowledge of system integration for the Greek market.”
GlobeSet’s line of transaction and payment solutions and services for secure electronic commerce include the GlobeSet Wallet(TM), GlobeSet ServerWallet(TM), GlobeSet POS(TM), GlobeSet ServerPOS(TM), GlobeSet Gateway(TM), and GlobeSet CA(TM). The products for consumers, merchants, portals, ISPs, banks and financial institutions have been awarded industry-first SET Marks signifying their compliance with the SET 1.0 specification.
SET, the standard for secure payment card transactions over the Internet, was developed by Visa and MasterCard, with participation from leading technology companies around the world including Austin-based GlobeSet Inc.
“Informer is a market leader in the Greek IT market and is committed in providing solutions to the banking sector, both in Greece and in the neighborhood area,” said Simos Simoudis, president, Informer. “The solutions offered are based on Globus, which is a well known international package, and several other applications mainly in the area of direct banking, Internet banking, phone banking and ATM/POS handling.” Mr. Simoudis also added, “The SET compliant suite of software offered by GlobeSet will provide Informer with a competitive advantage in the field of e-commerce and will complement the solutions we offer.”
