Master of Swiss Apps 2014: "Sum up" best app of the year

All those present were able to vote for one of the apps identified in advance by the expert jury and the readers of Netzwoche as candidates for the Master of Swiss Apps. The audience voted "Sumup" as this year's Master of Swiss Apps and thus the best app of the year. The app was submitted by UBS.

"Sum up"

With Sum up, UBS is bringing a tried-and-tested mobile card terminal to Switzerland. With it, even the smallest amounts can be paid by credit card anywhere and at any time via smartphone or tablet. The terminal system consists of an app for tablets or smartphones, as well as a small card reader with a numeric keypad. The app turns the tablet or smartphone into a checkout and payment system: the amount is entered on the screen, the credit card is inserted into the reader, the code is entered via the keypad - and the purchase is complete.
