DataMesh teams up with Visa

Australian-based paytech, DataMesh, is partnering with Visa to enhance card-acceptance payment processing experiences for merchants, acquirers, and consumers.

The cooperation will leverage DataMesh's Unify platform. This offers customisable payment solutions significantly beyond the traditional "one-size-fits-all" approach that exists in the market today. According to DataMesh, Unify enables businesses across various industries, such as retail, convenience, fuel, hospitality, transportation and more, to tailor the payment process and experience to their unique needs. The overall aim is to enhance efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Unify's cloud-native infrastructure allows for rapid integration to existing platforms. This reduces operational costs, thereby facilitating a smoother transition for businesses moving from legacy systems. Additionally, Unify's data analytics capabilities give merchants valuable insights into consumer behaviour. The result is more effective personalised interactions and improved customer experiences.
