Retailers adopting a ‘Pick and Mix’ approach to payment terminal selection

With the maturity of Chip and PIN technology there is now a far greater diversity of payment terminal models available on the market for retailers to choose from.  These are available from a range of device manufacturers. Gone are the days when one model was expected to meet the needs of all merchants irrespective of their size, sector or store formats.

Managing cash with G8

STS’ payment application, G8, has a simple programming interface for accepting payments. The interface was originally designed to allow an electronic point of sale (EPOS) to instruct G8 to accept payments from “any card, using any payment gateway”. This design principle means that G8’s API is pretty useful for accepting any type of payment, including accepting cash using an automatic cash acceptance device, including dispensing cashback!

Using G8 with Verifone VSD P2PE

G8 is STS’ payment application, which allows merchants and POS developers to accept payments from any one of many different types of card reader. G8’s simple but powerful interface hides the complexity of dealing with different card reader manufacturers, models and payment gateways, so that POS developers only need to integrate a single time, while offering maximum choice.
