iZettle Takes Its Mobile Payment Service To Mexico, Its First Market Outside Of Europe, And One Step Closer To Square
iZettle, the mobile payments company that has been described as a European version of Square, is today making a move that places it one national boundary away from the U.S. mobile payment company's own backyard: iZettle is launching its iOS and Android service in Mexico. This is the Swedish company's first move outside of Europe, and comes in the wake of a $6.6 million funding round from the Spanish financial services behemoth Banco Santander, announced just last week and made specifically to build out the solution into more markets globally.

HotelTonight Expands To Continental Europe, Adds Language Support, And Launches Gift Credits
HotelTonight, the app that provides access to special deals for hotel rooms available that very evening, is making a couple of announcements today. For one thing, the company says that it's making its first move into continental Europe, with hotel listings in Paris, Nice, Brussels, and Amsterdam. The app already offered listings in countries like Canada and the United Kingdom, but this is an important step in its continued expansion, especially as similar apps emerge in Europe. The company has also added listings for Mexico City and Acapulco. And with the latest app update, it's the internationalization isn't just in the listings — HotelTonight has added French, German, Italian, and Spanish, so international users will get a localized view in their own language.
