This late in the game, it will actually be tough to find a new point of sale system that <em>isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t<\/em> compatible with EMV chip cards. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s good news for you because it will make your search easier, plus you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll have a wide selection of options. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve put together a guide to help you determine which type of EMV terminal is right for your business.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What Exactly is an EMV-Compatible POS System?<a href=\"http:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-676\" src=\"http:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"EMV Compatible Terminal | Abtek\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-1.png 618w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>An EMV terminal differs from traditional magnetic stripe terminals in one major way: it includes a chip-reading portal into which customers insert their EMV cards. This portal features technology that can read the unique payment information that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s generated by the microchip embedded into the card.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What are Your Options?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Different types of businesses have different needs when it comes to payment processing. Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a look at the most popular types of EMV-compatible terminals available.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Countertop Terminals &#8211; <\/strong>Like their name implies, countertop terminals are placed on top of the checkout counter for customer use. These terminals are available with a number of different features including WiFi connectivity, receipt printing, near-field communication technology and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pin Pads \u00e2\u20ac\u201c <\/strong>Pin pads function similarly to countertop terminals. The only difference here is that they can only be used to process debit transactions, which typically have lower fees for the merchant. Often, pin pads are used in conjunction with compatible countertop terminals.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-674\" src=\"http:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-150x150.png\" alt=\"NFC Peripheral | Abtek\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.abtek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/thumbnail.png 618w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Near-Field Communication Peripherals \u00e2\u20ac\u201c <\/strong>NFC is a technology that enables wireless data transfers between two devices in close proximity, often a phone or enabled credit card and a credit card terminal. NFC is kind of like a modern, cool \u00e2\u20ac\u0153bonus\u00e2\u20ac\u009d feature that can help to speed up the payment process. If the technology is not already embedded into the terminal, peripheral equipment is available.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wireless Mobile Terminals &#8211; <\/strong>Mobile terminals will be key for businesses in the restaurant industry and businesses that interact with their customers on the floor. (Think Apple.) These point-of-sale systems are battery-powered, feature wireless connectivity and give the merchant the freedom to process payments from anywhere.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Where Can You Buy an EMV Credit Card Terminal?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you work with a reputable merchant services provider (MSP), they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll have a large inventory of EMV terminals for you to choose from. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll take care of all of the programming for you to ensure that it works properly in time for the liability shift. While you could technically purchase a terminal from an outside seller, it would still need to be reprogramed by your MSP, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s typically easier and more cost-effective to go directly through your provider.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t Delay \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Get Started Now!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Contact your merchant services provider today to place your order for new EMV-compatible terminals. The sooner you take action, the better the chances that you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get through this EMV transition chargeback- and fee-free!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By now, if you haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t updated your payment equipment to be compatible with EMV chip cards, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re already a step behind.
