ROAM Data continues to lead the field of Mobile POS solution providers, adding nearly two dozen new Android devices to their supported device catalog.

BOSTON, Jan. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ROAM Data, the leader in providing mCommerce applications and services across hundreds of mobile devices, announced today its expanded Android support for its ROAMpay Swipe.  The ROAMpay Swipe has become the industry standard in low cost, secure, mobile credit card acceptance.  The update increases ROAMpay Swipe support to over 20 Android devices, joining the iPhone (3G, 3GS, 4), iPad, iPod Touch, and select BlackBerry devices in their supported device catalog.  Merchants using the ROAMpay Swipe, along with a compatible merchant account, can securely swipe a customer's card and qualify for card swiped rates. Unlike similar looking devices, the ROAMpay Swipe has built-in encryption, avoiding the serious risks of skimming, theft and fraud.
