Amos Taman

Amos Taman is the genius behind the technology that allows you to pay for your cab with a credit card. It was his ingenuity that changed an industry.

Amos Taman moved to the United States from Israel in the 1980s looking for a brand new start in the land of opportunity. An electrical engineer trained at Tel Aviv University, Amos began servicing taxi cabs in New York City. 20 years later he's the CEO of Veriphone Transportation Systems, the industry leader in wireless technology that enables taxis to accept credit cards.

Next time you pay for your $50 cab ride from JFK, think of Amos Taman and remember that there is always opportunity to begin with a fresh start.
