Fresh after PayPal revealed its point of sale pilot with Home Depot stores, TechCrunch reports that PayPal has partnered with ABJ Software, an international company that specializes in transaction authorization, PIN and point of sale communication, and many other solutions.

TechCrunch reports:

“AJB will build a native PayPal interface within its integrated payment solutions platform. The interface can then be made available to AJB’s retail customer base…. Similar to the Home Depot integration, PayPal members will have the option of paying for merchandise by swiping a PayPal Access Card or by entering the mobile telephone number and password associated with their accounts.”

This partnership will help PayPal’s technology reach 250,000 point of sale terminals in ABJ’s 140-plus retailer base.

Yesterday, PayPal relaunched Send Money, a Facebook app that allows payments, accompanied by e-cards, to be sent to friends. PayPal says 80% of its active users also use Facebook. 

The process begins inside Facebook where the app is launched and the recipient is chosen from the friends list. Then users select an e-card image, add a personal greeting, and type in the amount of the payment. The final step takes users into their PayPal account, where they login with their PayPal username/password, to confirm the transaction. Recipients need a PayPal account to redeem the cash. 

While the e-cards and P2P payments are free, PayPal’s international fees still apply.
