Follow on Google News | Wireless Grant Lets Farmers Go Wireless with Go Mobile CommerceFarmers Markets throughout Washington State are geared up with wireless credit card machines to accept electronic transactions and increase sales.
By: Heather Mickelson This wireless campaign is an effort by the Washington State Farmers Market Association Wireless Technology Pilot Project, which was made possible through an initiative to assist farmers markets in developing the capacity to accept wireless electronic payment cards. Grantee markets will be provided with wireless point of sale terminals from GoMobile Commerce, training and technical assistance, outreach guidance, and necessary supplies and marketing materials. Prior to launching the program, a representative from each market will participate in an all-day training course hosted by WSFMA and GoMobile Commerce. Market shoppers will use their cards to purchase tokens which will then be used to buy locally produced goods from individual vendors. Data collected during this two-year project on the amounts and number of the various electronic payments will be used to measure tangible benefits to participating markets in the future # # # About GoMobile Commerce: Provider of innovative wireless credit card solutions and pioneer in short-term wireless solutions, without a long term commitment, is the largest rental provider in the nation.
