OmniFund has expanded the features of its Passport product with extended APIs enabling more functionality and control for merchants when requesting contactless payments at the point of sale for goods and services rendered.
The APIs allow developers to seamlessly integrate with many point of sale (POS) and back-office management software systems. The flexible functionality of Passport payments allows merchants to offer more payment possibilities, regardless of where the transaction takes place.

“OmniFund has provided merchants with the power to request a payment from the other side of the counter, the other side of the building, or the other side of the world,” says Stacy Roderick, CEO of OmniFund.
Passport functions provide an advantage for service-based businesses such as restaurants, dog groomers, salons, mechanics and more, where services are provided before payment is received. Using Passport, payment requests can be sent via email or SMS text message through our gateway or the merchant’s point of sale platform. The merchant can notify customers that their services are complete and request payment for the exact amount due. Rather than wait to return to the storefront to pay, customers can accept and securely submit their payment using the link within the same notification. All payments made through Passport are reconciled easily and securely within the POS system. For tipped businesses, the expanded APIs also include tip line and check-splitting functionality.
The entire process is easily viewed from start to finish, providing the merchant with more control over their transactions. The added functionality of the Passport APIs makes contactless payments a more streamlined, efficient process that benefits both the merchant and customer.
