Billing Revolution Enables Mobile Payments for PayPal Merchants

Merchants that accept payments through PayPal Inc. can begin conducting mobile credit card transactions through an agreement between PayPal and Billing Revolution, according to the Seattle-based provider of mobile-payments technology.

Under the agreement, Billing Revolution is reselling PayPal's Payflow Pro gateway service, which connects merchants' online stores with their existing PayPal merchant accounts.

Billing Revolution offers a service that enables merchants to create a mobile Web site that can accept transactions. "PayPal merchants wishing to conduct mobile credit card transactions can now … use Billing Revolution to process transactions through their existing PayPal accounts," says Andy Kleitsch, Billing Revolution CEO.

PayPal has roughly 45,000 merchants that process transactions using the Payflow Pro gateway.
