AIRCHARGE has released its first Bluetooth card swipe and printer solution for Research In Motion's BlackBerry smartphones operating on the Sprint Mobile Broadband and Nextel National Networks. The offering expands the number of BlackBerry smartphones that are now compatible with AIRCHARGE for use by mobile merchants to accept credit card payments.

AIRCHARGE credit card payment solutions are used by merchants to accept payments in many types of mobile environments including HVAC, plumbing, limousine and taxi, delivery, trade show, flea market or any situation where access to standard phone lines is limited, expensive, or simply not convenient or available.

The AIRCHARGE payment processing software can be loaded onto the customer's BlackBerry smartphone over-the-air (OTA) and is compatible with virtually any merchant processing account. The AIRCHARGE JavaME software for wireless payment processing has been certified to run on the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition, BlackBerry Pearl 8130, BlackBerry 8703e, BlackBerry 7520, BlackBerry 7250 and BlackBerry 7130e smartphones, all operating on the Sprint Mobile Broadband Network and the BlackBerry 7100i smartphone, operating on the Nextel National Network.
