SCVNGR's LevelUp Mobile Payment Solution Leverages T-Mobile Nationwide 4G Network

(firmenpresse) - CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/02/11 -- SCVNGR today announced that it has successfully deployed its new mobile payments solution to consumers and businesses over T-Mobile's nationwide 4G network. The combination of a smartphone; the unique, free downloadable LevelUp application; personalized QR codes; and America's Largest 4G Network® brings loyalty, rewards and payments together into one seamless pay-by-phone system.
With LevelUp, consumers can download the free or application, link to any credit or debit card, head to any participating merchant, and pay by phone. The first time a consumer visits a participating merchant, credit is available. With return visits, the customer automatically progresses towards additional "rewards" just by paying with their phone. Instant digital receipts show exactly how much was paid, saved and how much was applied towards "rewards." It's simple, secure and fast.
For businesses of all sizes, LevelUp provides a simple, yet sophisticated way to engage customers and simultaneously fight back on onerous credit card processing fees. LevelUp is currently available at hundreds of merchants in Boston, Philadelphia, and New York City and San Francisco. Merchants using LevelUp can get real-time insights into customer visitation and purchasing patterns, increase customer loyalty, and attract and retain new customers.

With T-Mobile's help, we're bringing this new transactional infrastructure nationwide."
