whizPay, a PCI-certified payments and CRM platform by TalentBeat, is being utilized by top retailers and Independent Sales Organizations (ISOs) to drive sales and customer loyalty, both in-store and online. By taking advantage of whizPay's end-to-end offerings that include real-time high-speed checkout, loyalty, gift card, CRM, campaign management, multicurrency, mobile payments, companies such as KaBloom, Mobext and Regis Corp. are able to reduce operational costs and avoid huge upfront investments in payment solutions. whizPay delivers the ability for merchants to provide a personalized, secure, and rich experience for their customers, directly driving an increase in completed purchase transactions.

KaBloom, a leading florist that leverages both the Web and franchise locations, has revealed that while many competitors are suffering losses during the challenging economic climate, they have actually increased profitability.

“One of our most competitive advantages is our ability to deliver flowers in water overnight via our ‘Moses Miracle’ delivery method,” said KaBloom CEO David Hartstein. “TalentBeat developed our complete e-commerce site, including the most important section that easily explains the Moses Miracle methodology, as well as provides the ability for our customers to instantly take advantage of it. Thanks to whizPay, the KaBloom online shopping cart experience is secure, fast, and encourages customer loyalty. We have had whizPay in place since April of 2008 and have seen both our revenue and number of repeating customers dramatically increase.”

Supporting every part of the transactional and payments “food chain,” whizPay is integrated into a majority of POS devices, shopping carts and processors worldwide, making the deployment and integration extremely efficient. The dynamic platform also provides IVR Self Service Solutions, Virtual Terminal and WebServices for third party integration as part of the platform, thus providing several avenues for accepting payments.

Mobext, the mobile marketing arm of Havas Digital that provides data driven advertising solutions within the mobile channel, has leveraged whizPay's text messaging platform and deep-level analytics capabilities.

"A key marketing solution for our clients is targeted messaging," said Phuc Truong, Managing Director at Mobext US. "whizPay's messaging and analytics platform is able to segment, target and re-target users. Because of this, we are able to leverage invaluable segmentation that helps us deliver a personalized experience for customers."

"We are thrilled that merchants and ISOs alike are able to take advantage of whizPay to grow their businesses, particularly during such a challenging economic climate," said TalentBeat CEO Rahul Mutha. "Not only are retailers faced with the challenge of making sales, they are also dealing with shaken consumer confidence in light of so many situations in which private data was compromised. It pleases us to see customers such as KaBloom and Mobext thrive as a result of whizPay."
