Terminal Applications

The POS Terminal Applications are value-added applications running on current Hypercom® or Verifone terminals. Certified with multiple credit hosts, they provide merchants with a convenient, easy-to-use payment device that accommodates a bilingual customer base.

Developed to support the restaurant, entertainment and retail markets, the products take advantage of these fast, interactive POS terminals. Built for speed and designed to enable value-added junctions, these terminals form a perfect partnership when matched with the POS Terminal Application.

The POS Terminal Applications allow merchants to enhance customer service and generate additional revenue through multiple value-added transactions such as cash back, couponing, QSR (Quick Service Retail) and prepaid services on the same terminal.

When integrated with Open Solutions Canada's POSH switch, streamlined processes for configuration reduce the requirements for site visits or contacting the merchant to modify the terminal's configuration.
