Card Reader Hardware

Finished readers and bare boards, in two form factors

The finished, cased device works out of the box; the board form factor supports embedding and custom development. Software SDK and certifications ship in sync, covering Visa / Mastercard / American Express / JCB / Discover / UnionPay / PURE / MIR and other L2 schemes — one module covers payment acceptance plus access-control and transit integrations.

CPM · Contactless Payment Module

A plug-and-play contactless payment module ›

An all-in-one design for self-service kiosks, vending machines, and transit gates, built around a Maxim secure processor (PCI PTS v6.1) and an NXP PN5190 contactless chipset.

SoftPOS

Turn any NFC-enabled Android phone into a contactless acceptance terminal

No extra hardware to buy or maintain — choose the SDK, the core Engine, or a full white-label App depending on how much you want to build yourself. PCI MPoC / PCI DSS certified, with scheme-level SoftPOS certification already done for you.

Integrate SoftPOS capability into your own app as an SDK — a few lines of code is all it takes to accept contactless payments. The Secure Host covers payment processing, risk monitoring, merchant management, and acquirer certification.Learn more ›

NFC Wallet

A Seed Wallet ready to launch anytime

Certified for PCI DSS, MDES, and Mastercard DAC, cards can be bound into a phone's and a watch's NFC wallet separately; inheriting Aonax's Mastercard Wallet Membership certification can cut 12 months off your own launch certification timeline.

The same card can be bound into both a phone's and a watch's NFC wallet — once bound, the card stays on the device. Once the watch is bound, it can pay on its own even if the phone is left at home.
