Yahoo Finance U.S. Bancorp's (USB) Arm Elavon Launches Talech Terminal
U.S Bancorp USB subsidiary, Elavon, unveiled a next-generation platform, talech Terminal. The platform will assist small business owners in managing their operations without having to shell out a fortune to buy a new payments system.
The talech Terminal is an easy-to-use point-of-sale solution that will let business owners accept payments from any location, at any time with a wide range of hardware options that include mobile/fixed hardware and in-store terminals. The system also offers a variety of features like a credit card surcharge, inventory management capabilities and employee management support.
Last year, U.S. Bancorp and Elavon launched talech Register as a next-generation integrated payments and business analytics platform. This was designed to enable small business owners to optimize their operations. Now, with the addition of talech Terminal, business owners can access a wider range of payment options.
Pari Sawant, chief product officer for Elavon, stated, "Our goal is to enable small business owners to focus on what they do best, eliminating the burden of managing customer payments. This solution is a perfect option for business owners who value their privacy and prefer not to mix their personal mobile phones for customer transactions."
Joy Ghanekar, chief product officer of talech, commented, "talech Terminal is a continuation of our multi-year strategy to deliver integrated hardware and software payment experiences for our small business customers following the successful launches of talech mobile in 2020 and talech Register in 2022. Terminal goes beyond basic payment acceptance and allows businesses to run their business in a simple, elegant form factor."
U.S. Bancorp’s ongoing investments in innovative product enhancements, services and people are expected to strengthen its fee-based businesses.
Over the past three months, shares of USB have gained 19.2% compared with the industry’s upside of 4.9%.
