Isis™, the mobile commerce joint venture created by AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless, today announced the first of its local merchant partners across Austin, Texas and Salt Lake City, Utah. In addition, Aéropostale, The Coca-Cola Company, Champs Sports, Dillard’s, Foot Locker, Jamba Juice and Macy’s are among the first national merchants to join with Isis in advancing mobile commerce.

These merchants, including grocery stores, retailers, gas stations, coffee shops and restaurants, are already equipped with the payment terminals that are compatible with Isis. At launch, hundreds of merchant locations in both Austin and Salt Lake City will accept contactless payments, ensuring that consumers can use the Isis Mobile Wallet at the merchant locations they shop at every day.

“Today’s announcement signals the mobile commerce experience has arrived.

Beyond payments, Isis will provide merchants with a platform to extend relevant offers and loyalty programs to their customer base, ensuring a more relevant and meaningful dialogue for consumers and merchants. The Isis Mobile Wallet will extend the relationship that merchants currently enjoy at the point-of-sale to the mobile device.

The carrier retail locations will join the local and national merchants supporting the Isis Mobile Wallet.

“By systematically building out merchant acceptance in an approach that is both geographically focused and centered around everyday spending, Isis intends to create a comprehensive mobile commerce experience for consumers that will simultaneously benefit merchants of all sizes,” says Rick Oglesby, senior analyst with Aite Group. “Today’s announcement demonstrates Isis is on track to deliver that goal.”
