CINCINNATI, April 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Vantiv,
Inc. (NYSE: VNTV), a leading provider of payment processing
services and related technology solutions for merchants and
financial institutions of all sizes, announced today that it has
partnered with Womply, a merchant-focused technology company, to
offer Vantiv BizShield and Insights to small and medium-sized
businesses. The products will allow merchants to manage, protect
and simplify their businesses with real-time data, advanced
analytics, online reputation management, and proactive threat
management.
"As a small business, we struggle with the idea of data and how
to use it to improve our sales," said Pia
Klausen, co-owner, Nordic House, an international grocery
and gift store in the Bay Area of California. "But Vantiv BizShield makes it
easy. I get email alerts that tell me what I need to know and how
to resolve the issue."
"Vantiv has embarked on a journey to help our customers and
partners better know and engage consumers by unlocking the power of
data, and this announcement marks an important step toward that
goal," said Nicole Jass, senior
leader, Data Products for Vantiv. "By partnering with Womply to
launch Vantiv BizShield and Insights, our customers will be able to
make informed decisions on how to effectively protect, grow, and
simplify their businesses."
The Womply-Vantiv partnership addresses the increasing need for
small business owners to run their companies with digital-age
sophistication, without getting bogged down by cumbersome tools or
unnecessary tasks. In addition to attracting and retaining
customers, merchants must watch and manage online reviews, monitor
their websites' health, track trends in revenue, and better
understand their customers.
Vantiv BizShield and Insights are two products that proactively
monitor these vital aspects of a merchant's business, allowing
business owners to take immediate action on the items that are the
most important to their success. With the addition of these
products to Vantiv's solutions portfolio, merchants will now be
able to compare their revenue to similar businesses in their area,
react to online reviews in real-time, ensure their companies are
included in online listings, gather market intelligence, track
revenue growth and customer churn, and much more. Both products are
available now to Vantiv's Integrated Payments channel, and later in
the year they will also be available to the Merchant Solutions for
Financial Institution channel (MSFI), as well as to Independent
Sales Organizations (ISO).
"We are thrilled to partner with Vantiv to introduce powerful,
yet simple technology and data solutions to merchants who face
evolving challenges as they try to grow their businesses and stay
competitive," said Cory Capoccia,
president of Womply. "Running a small business has never been more
complex, and merchants face new threats every day. Vantiv BizShield
and Insights will give merchants the tools they need to efficiently
nurture and protect their businesses without distracting from
crucial day-to-day management tasks."
