Secure-payment solutions for outdoor, unattended machines

November 18, 2003

DUBLIN, Ireland, and DALLAS -- Trintech Group Plc., provider of transaction management and payment infrastructure solutions, has a new range of secure payment solutions for outdoor and unattended payment environments.

The PayWare OpenPay 3000 range of high security PIN pads has been designed for unattended environments, addressing the requirements of "pay-at-pump" for petroleum companies, product and ticket-vending machines, parking and prepaid mobile recharge applications, according to a news release.

The new products are based on the proven PayWare OpenPay SPM (secure payment module), and its modular system design accommodates different combinations of PIN pads, card readers and displays.

There are three models in the PayWare OpenPay 3000 range. The OpenPay 3300 has the PIN pad, reader and LCD integrated into one unit and is the most straightforward to incorporate into new kiosk designs. The OpenPay 3200 model provides both the PIN pad and LCD in a single secure enclosure. The card reader is located separately. With OpenPay 3100, maximum design flexibility is provided in terms of location of the system components, subject to the applicable security requirements, such as protection of plain-text PIN, according to the release.

The PayWare OpenPay 3000 range meets tough environmental requirements. The keyboard is fully durable in its construction and is based on more than a decade of experience with harsh outdoor applications. The keys' patented design provides protection against liquids and physical attack.

The units can be front-mounted in the vending door or rear-mounted using a mounting bracket.
