Company Name Tempo Payments
Mailing Address 999 Baker Way San Mateo, CA 94404
Company Description Tempo provides retailers a low-cost alternative to Visa and MasterCard that delivers significant savings and revenue growth opportunities. The company operates a PIN-based payment network that uses retailer-issued and branded debit cards. Retailers issuing and accepting Tempo-enabled debit cards are charged dramatically lower interchange rates, reducing their payment processing costs. Participating retailers can pass on a portion of the savings to consumers in the form of incentives and discounts, which increases customer loyalty and drives more frequent and larger purchases.
