With you every step of the wayFrom the moment you fill out your merchant registration form, our business development and compliance teams take over and start working with you to create a BOKU publisher portal account. Our Merchant Support Team then takes over and enables special configurations based on your compliance needs. The MST team then works with you as you integrate BOKU into your product and then submit for approval. Once MST approves your service, you’re all set and ready to use BOKU. |
| As flexible as you need us to beIntegrating with BOKU API’s is flexible and easy. The main API’s required are pricing and transaction initiation API’s. The pricing API just queries available price points. The transaction initiation API starts a transaction with a given price point. Working with our Android SDK might be even easier. Just drop a few lines of code into our jar file, integrate the standard pricing API and you’re good to go. |  |

In addition to announcing our new carrier billing agreements with Sprint and Deutsche Telekom, we made yet another big announcement this morning that that we’ve added two seasoned veterans of the payments industry to our executive team here at BOKU. Jon Prideaux, Executive Vice President for Visa, and Stuart Neal, Managing Director of International Development for Barclaycard, are joining the executive team as Chief Business Officer and Senior Vice President of Business Development, respectively.
Jon Prideaux was an early Visa Europe employee, joining the company in 1989 at a time when it had fewer employees than BOKU does now. He worked with Visa for 17 years, finally exiting as Executive Vice President, Marketing in 2006 to work with smaller, more entrepreneurial companies like BOKU.
Stuart Neal joins BOKU after six years at Barclaycard, during which time he was responsible for growing their merchant acquiring division, the second largest in Europe with over 300 staff members operating in multiple countries. He is a prominent figure in the European payments market, with specific expertise in deploying innovative point of sale solutions.

Contactless Intelligence announced that BOKU was a finalist for their Mobile Payment Application of the Year award. Now in its 5th year, the awards ceremony was held on April 26th in London.
Conference organizers selected BOKU from a host of NFC-based technologies that have emerged in the past year. The organizers had the following to say about the nomination category: “With so much energy going into NFC payment applications for mobile payment solutions, there is a vast number of payment apps available in the market; each with their own distinct characteristics. From mobile wallets to pure payment solutions, the category aims to reward one company for doing the most to bring mobile payments to the mass market.”
On the heels of our Accounts launch in February, its an honor to be recognized for our contribution to expanding NFC technology. Many thanks to the judges for selecting BOKU as a finalist and the BOKU Team for making it all possible.

This week, BOKU President and co-founder Ron Hirson was asked to contribute a guest editorial post for VentureBeat as a part of an ongoing series leading up to their second annual Mobile Summit conference.
Ron used the opportunity to follow up on his guest post from the previous year “Why does NFC matter? Does tap beat swipe for mobile payments?” and reflect a bit on the state of real-world mobile payments and NFC in particular.
The title of this year’s piece “The state of mobile payments: No more waiting on NFC” holds particular significance for our company, as we recently announced BOKU Accounts: our new, carrier-distributed mobile payments platform. BOKU Accounts combines the best of existing payments technologies (NFC, cards, and smartphone apps) to create a turnkey solution to enable real world mobile payments today, rather than waiting for merchants and consumers to adopt new technology. Here is an excerpt and link to the full article:
Think of consumers and merchants as two circles in a Venn diagram, with the intersection representing when a consumer with an NFC enabled device happens to find a merchant that accepts NFC payments. The overlap is incredibly small. This isn’t meant to say “NFC will never change the way we pay,” simply that it isn’t here yet.
Given both the incredible potential presented by mobile payments at the point-of-sale and the significant adoption challenges facing the technology, we are left with this question: “Why are we waiting for so many friction-laden events to happen?” Or, put another way, “Why are we waiting on NFC to deliver mobile payments with real value to merchants and customers?”
