Sydney (BUSINESS WIRE) - Crazy John's, the largest independent phone retailer in Australia, has chosen the Transaction Network Services (NYSE:TNS) Merchant Payment Gateway Solution to provide secure card not present payment processing.
The TNS hosted recurring billing service provides Crazy John's with one interface for processing both credit card and direct debit payments. This significantly reduces the costs normally associated with managing multiple vendors for a variety of payment mechanisms.
Crazy John's will also use the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) compliant Merchant Payment Gateway Solution to maintain the security of real time credit and debit card processing - including top-up cards - and stored card details for recurring transactions.
In addition to processing payments, TNS stores all sensitive card data offsite for Crazy John's. This ensures Crazy John's is compliant, but without the additional expense of changing its internal systems and processes.
Stephen Tuffley, head of operations at Crazy John's, explains, "We needed processing services that are extremely reliable, highly available, scalable, and secure. We also wanted a company we could trust, as the project involved a variety of third party organizations, each having a hand in our critical payments operation. TNS' professional services, project management and delivery teams have excelled in the co-ordinated implementation and their technical expertise in the payments industry is outstanding."
TNS also ensured Crazy John's finance department has efficient reconciliation processes across the multiple payment channels, which has resulted in significantly reduced administration overheads and streamlined processes.
Christopher Hughes, Vice President Sales TNS Asia Pacific, comments: "Crazy John's has built one of the most recognized retail brands in the mobile phone market in Australia. We are delighted to be a part of this growing and innovative business and are extremely well positioned to support growth needs through our extended value proposition, giving Crazy John's an easy migration option into new markets in the future."
