Retail Point of Sale Swipe and Park Keyboards
Access offers the integration of a swipe and park module into its point of sale keyboards providing retailers an easy option to accept EMV credit card and debit card chip and pin card payment and enabling retention of the card during the transaction process.
The keyboards combine a robust programmable keyboard with an EMV PCI-DSS swipe and park card reader. There is also provision for a PIN pad to be attached enabling retailers to implement PIN based cardholder verification.
Many leading retailers believe swipe and park keeps the costs of retraining staff to a minimum and helped in the introduction of EMV chip card payment to their customers.
By swiping a credit card through the reader it is possible to read 3 track MSR encoded data as well as locate the card securely into the smart card receptor and complete an EMV payment transaction by reading the Chip. Cards with only a magnetically encoded data can also be processed in the same reader without relying on the operator to distinguish between card types.
Access provides a pre-configuration service to customise keypads with special key layouts, colours and legends. QWERTY over POS and 15x8 matrix keyboard layouts are available as well as options which integrate a Glidepoint mouse pointer. All key positions can be programmed to have a single character or string of characters using Access' SoftProg programming utility. A keyboard pass-through port is also fitted for system maintenance and programming.
The chip and pin module can be added to any custom keyboards or POS keyboards. To see what's available in more detail, click on one of the links below:
