Learning Express Toys Selects FreedomPay Commerce Platform to Advance Growth Initiatives

FreedomPay to deliver industry leading PCI-Validated security and Cloud based in-store value added services


BOSTON, Jan. 7, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Learning Express Toys, the nation's leading franchisor of educational toy stores, is implementing the FreedomPay® Commerce Platform™ across more than 125 of its stores. FreedomPay leverages a Cloud-based PaaS commerce platform.

Learning Express Toys sets itself apart from the "big-box" toy stores with unique toys, gifts, and exclusive products—all of which inspire imagination, creativity, and intellectual and physical development. Free gift wrapping, complimentary personalization, and an exceptional "birthday box" gift registry are a few of the customized services that every location offers.

The Cloud-based FreedomPay Commerce Platform augments the successful business model of LE Toys and places them at the forefront of technology innovation. The franchise is deploying FreedomPay's industry leading PCI-Validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) security solution, as well as the advanced merchant processing gateway. FreedomPay's Cloud-based Platform-as-a-Service delivers on-demand access to applications and services anytime, anywhere including: incentives, loyalty and enterprise security solutions.

The FreedomPay Commerce Platform is the first PCI-Validated P2PE solution for merchants available on Microsoft Azure. FreedomPay's solution allows merchants to accept all EMV, NFC, and traditional payment methods within a PCI-Validated P2PE security wrapper, and leverages the Azure cloud and integration across devices to power real-time interaction and personalization at checkout.
The solution adheres to the rigorous P2PE certification requirements of the PCI Security Standards Council, approved to remove the merchant's POS and network completely out of scope for PCI DSS compliance.
