Payment acceptance
Card readers process all types of cards - chip and PIN, magnetic stripe and contactless cards, accept payments from all major card providers VISA, Mastercard, JCB, UnionPay, bancontact, as well as payments via Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay.
Chip and PIN card processing
Insert the card (chip facing up) into the bottom reader of the terminal. If the terminal does not accept the card, remove and reinsert it, making sure the card is inserted correctly. If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the card. Ask the customer to present another card.
CHIP cards usually require a PIN to confirm the transaction. In this case, the message "ENTER PIN" will be displayed on the myPOS terminal. Hand the terminal to the customer and ask him/her to enter the PIN code and press the confirm button. The terminal will process the PIN code and, if the PIN code is entered correctly, a message on the screen will inform about the successful payment.
If the card does not require a PIN code, the transaction will be processed without a PIN code request and a message on the screen will inform about the successful payment.
PIN – personal identification number
Magnetic stripe card processing
Swipe the card (with the magnetic strip facing up) over the terminal's upper scanner. Make sure the card is inserted correctly and swipe through the scanner at an even speed. The card swiping speed should not be too slow, as this may cause problems during checkout.
If the CHIP card is swiped as magnetic, the terminal will not accept it. Insert the card (with the chip facing up) into the lower reader of the myPOS terminal and follow the steps in the section "Processing Chip and PIN Cards".

If the payment has been processed successfully, all four lights will light up, followed by a beep to let you know that the card can be removed. Payment is made in seconds.
