August 15, 2011 Tacoma, WA- Go Mobile Commerce, the nation's leader in wireless payment solutions marks its 3rd year in business today at a celebratory event at Pacific Grill in downtown Tacoma. The celebration began with a toast to the success of being the largest wireless rental provider in the nation and remarks on its future, which is very bright.  Its future includes a retail storefront in Tacoma's Stadium District.

"We've set high standards and expectations and exceeded them all," remarked Rebecca Payan, Sales Manager.  "We love what we do and get so excited to hear of the successes from charitable organizations of increased donations."  Taking donations via a wireless credit card machine (for one day use) is simple and the solution is turn-key.

When asked Payan what was her favorite event to sell for, she paused.  "Obama's Inauguration was an amazing highlight.  Lee Jeans Denim Day took our wireless machines throughout Kansas City raising $5.00 donations in order to wear jeans for the day.  Another amazing event was the Brent Shapiro Foundation in Beverly Hills where our machines raised over $250,000 in one night.  Oh, the list goes on....I live vicariously through the machines we rent.  Oh the places they go!" Payan then chuckled and pointed to a map behind her, displaying each event the machines have traveled.  Just about every state was covered, including Alaska and Hawaii.

Go Mobile was founded by a Tacoma native and has chosen to keeps its roots at home.  While the majority of its business is out of state, they looks forward to attracting businesses in its own backyard by opening a retail storefront. In 2010, it was ranked by the Business Examiner as the 10th largest female owned business in Pierce County (#25 in 2009). As three congratulatory years of success pass, the feather in the cap gives a wink and a smile for many more years to come!

The ability to sit back, relax and enjoy the festival is what one company is making is possible all over the United States. The ability to enjoy your Oktoberfest without having to worry about how much cash you have is what one company strives to do. Go Mobile Commerce has begun making it possible for beer gardens and vendors to take credit cards at your local Oktoberfest with their handheld, portable credit card machines. Go Mobile Commerce is a company which offers short term wireless payment solution. They create or use a vendor's merchant services provider and link it to their handheld wireless credit card machine and it is ready to go to the beer vendor near you. There are not long term contracts for vendors to be concerned with and the machines run on their own cellular connection, so the vendor can focus on pouring the next beer!

Go Mobile Commerce will be celebrating this year too as it holds its 3rd anniversary as being the leading wireless credit card payment option company of its kind. Their retail store is set to open in Tacoma, WA this fall with a showroom that will allow clients and vendors to get one on one training with the merchandise and create a great local presence in Tacoma's Historic Stadium District. While beer garden vendors have a number of options for accepting credit cards many alternatives are costly and not up to date. With Go Mobile Commerce vendors are able to accept credit cards without breaking the bank and know that the equipment and technology associated with the credit card machine is up to date and follows all PCI compliance regulations.

One company that is looking to do the Puyallup is Go Mobile Commerce, a local provider of wireless credit card machines.  As credit cards become the preferred method of payment at the fair, vendors turn to Go Mobile for short term wireless payment solution during the entire three weeks they will be selling at the fair.
 
Go Mobile Commerce has a unique solution: they will activate a vendors current merchant service provider to their handheld wireless credit card machine so it is ready to go out of the box via its own cellular connection, and does not have a long term commitment.  Truly a turn key solution and first of its kind.
 
In August 2011, they will be celebrating their three year anniversary as the nation's first in wireless payment rentals.   With a retail storefront scheduled to open fall of 2011 in Tacoma's Stadium District, just in time for the Puyallup Fair, the ease of receiving and returning the equipment will be simple: pick up or they will deliver to your event location.  The showroom will include hands on demonstrations of their product line which is always advancing with the new technologies, additionally a pick up and drop off area for local rental clients.
 
What is the alternative for a vendor to accept payments at the Puyallup Fair?  A vendor may rent a phone line from the Fair, which roughly about $300 and does not include equipment, they must bring their own credit card machine that dials out through a landline.  Purchasing a wireless credit card machine is an expensive option for those selling only once a year: a wireless machine costs about $600 plus wireless access fees and a minimum of 6 months and activation fees.  One of the most cost effective solutions is to rent from Go Mobile Commerce.

About Go Mobile Commerce: With local roots from the Puyallup and Tacoma area, Go Mobile prides themselves on being a local leader. Their founding took hold when, as a merchant services provider in the Small Business Incubator off of Portland Street in Tacoma, received a call from Tall Ships looking to rent wireless credit card machines for their souvenier and ticket sales.  When the wireless machines returned, its founder decided to focus solely on renting the machines to other events, thus launched Go Mobile Commerce. As the three year mark approaches of success, Go Mobile has made their way as a leader in wireless payments and are often coined the 'Netflix of wireless payments.'   Now, they're ready to do the Puyallup!
 
About the Puyallup Fair: Officially named the 'Western Washington Fair', it is the single largest attraction held annually in the state of Washington.  The fair continually ranks in the top ten largest fairs in the world. Over 1,900 employees are hired in September during the Puyallup Fair.  For more information about the Puyallup Fair, please visit www.thefair.com.
