Presenter Profile:
How they describe themselves: Braintree is the fastest growing payment platform for online and mobile businesses, offering all the tools merchants need to accept payments and provide consumers a frictionless experience at checkout. Braintree provides merchants with a secure payment gateway, merchant account, recurring billing and credit card storage, as well as industry-leading customer service and an easy-to-integrate API. Braintree operates internationally and allows merchants in 40 countries in North America, Europe and Australia to accept payments in over 130 currencies. Braintree’s consumer brand, Venmo, offers a digital wallet and person-to-person payment application that makes it easy for consumers to make payments on mobile devices.
How they describe their product/innovation: Venmo Touch eliminates the need to constantly re-type your credit card information when making purchases on your mobile device. It provides a connective layer across all the apps on your phone, designed to make every payment in a new app as easy as buying a song in iTunes. The next time you enter your card details in one of the apps in our network, just check “Save card with Venmo.” When you use other in-network apps on the same device, you will see the option to use the saved card to pay with just a single touch.
