“We have had tremendous interest from strategic investors who are desirous of seeing a more rapid evolution of real, scalable solutions for the mobile payments market,” said Brian A. Bogosian, SALT Technology CEO. “Our innovative platform and integrated merchant solutions help to make mobile payments a reality for our partners . . . whether they wish to support NFC-based, peer-to-peer or mobile browser-based payments.” The first implementations of the platform are scheduled to be launched this year.
