1 st National Processing announces its Mobile Merchant Pro™ line of credit card processing applications for mobile phones. The Mobile Merchant Pro debut includes solutions for the iPhone™, and iPod® Touch in addition to a Free BlackBerry® mobile payment application.

Mobile Merchant Pro is a point of sale application that allows mobile merchants to process credit cards real-time on their mobile phones. With support for both Authorize.Net™ and PayPal™ Web Payments Pro, merchants have a choice by using their existing payment gateways, or use one provided by 1 st National Processing.

1 st National Processing, having supported the needs of Mobile Merchants for over 20 years, created the Mobile Merchant Pro line to expand a merchant’s ability to accept credit cards anywhere. These mobile solutions

were created to address the credit card processing needs for consultants, contractors, photographers, plumbers, locksmiths, livery drivers, insurance agents, tradeshows, and the Arts & Crafts vendor communities.

The iPhone version of Mobile Merchant Pro is currently available for download via the iTunes™ application store at $19.99 or Free with a new Merchant Account through 1 st National Processing.

Mobile Merchant Pro for the BlackBerry is a full feature FREE application currently available for download at www.mobilemerchantpro.com : and coming soon to the BlackBerry Application store. Mobile merchants who currently process credit cards using a supported gateway can benefit immediately as nothing further is required.

“The iPhone and BlackBerry solutions are just the beginning for us and I’m excited about the value we’ll be passing on to the mobile merchant community,” said Michael Di Giovanni, President of 1 st National Processing. “As for our Free BlackBerry solution, it’s a great way of supporting our existing customers and serves as a terrific introduction to those who aren’t yet familiar with 1 st National Processing.”


More information regarding the iPhone, Blackberry, and pending Android™ and Palm® Pre™ versions can be found on the Mobile Merchant Pro site at www.mobilemerchantpro.com : and the 1 st National Processing site at www.1nbcard.com/mmp : .
