The WisePadTM 2 also has standard over-the-air features allowing both firmware updates and key injection that are essential in increasing operational efficiency as well as having a 2G/3G modem to allow direct connectivity to the network.

WisePadTM 2 complies with all major industrial security standards including PCI PTS v4.1 with SRED; EMV L1 & L2; EMV Contactless L1; VISA payWave; MasterCard PayPass; AMEX ExpressPay; Discover D-PAS; and MasterCard TQM.

WisePadTM 2 will be widely adopted as a mobile solution working with a smart device or as a stand-alone solution. It will also be a good alternative to conventional counter-top POS devices in countries which use Chip and PIN payment systems, such as China and in Europe. The non-NFC versions have been used at a number of key events and by merchants. For example, at the Dubai World Cup, customers had the flexibility and convenience of not waiting in long queues to purchase tickets and, instead, were able to use their debit or credit cards via roaming staff who were using tablets and WisePadTM .

WisePadTM 2 is the future of mPOS - delivering a cost effective solution with convenient updating and a wide range of applications. Please visit our website for more details.
