Market Watch reports.

Available in the iTunes App Store and Google Play, AppCharge features easy-to-use technology that's supported by round-the-clock technical service, making it easy for merchants to process payments in real-time at a trade show, at home, or anywhere business can be conducted.

"AppCharge is the perfect solution for business on the go," says Derek Cyr, product development manager with PowerPay. "We wanted to create a simple and secure product that gave merchants all the features of a robust merchant account and terminal, with the freedom to process just about anywhere and at a fraction of the cost. By offering 24/7 technical support and higher transaction limits, we are meeting the needs of businesses that expect more from their processing partner. "

According to The Whir, AppCharge comes with a card reader and features touchpad signature for customers to sign for transactions directly on the device.
