Berlin/Bonn (Germany) (ptp021/25.03.2014/12:00) valuephone GmbH was selected as technology service provider for the new mobile payment offer of Deutsche Post. The innovative service PAYSMART is implemented on basis of the valuephone mobile technology platform. Customers using the free PAYSMART-App can pay with their smart phone in every registered shop.

Before, valuephone was selected by Deutsche Telekom, Netto and EDKEA for mobile couponing or mobile payment solutions.
How PAYSMART functions: the customer downloads the PAYSMART-App on his mobile phone and registers for mobile payment. Then the payment is very easy: At the cashier the customer scans the QR-Code of the entire shopping and approves the payment. The shop must be registered for PAYSMART.
PAYSMART is a real mobile payment solution. valuephone's software transforms and transmits the QR-Codes from the customers mobile phone to the payment provider. There are no sensible or private data stored on the customer's mobile phone, as bank account numbers or any transaction information. The mobile phone serves only as authentication tool.
