PAX S80 Special

The PAX S80 terminal, also known as the PAX S80 credit card machine or simply the PAX S80, is a versatile card processing device that provides a range of features to meet various merchant needs. This PAX card machine is designed to accept traditional magnetic strip credit and debit cards securely and quickly, with compatibility for Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Diners’ Club, JCB, and EBT cards.

Equipped with an EMV certified Smart Card reader, the PAX 80 ensures secure acceptance of EMV payment types. An optional contactless reader allows merchants to accept contactless payments, including MasterCard PayPass and Visa payWave. The user-friendly, ATM-style interface ensures easy operation, while the built-in printer allows for fast receipt printing at the time of sale.

• The PAX S80 offers store and forward technology, enabling merchants to accept payments even without an available connection for authorization. The terminal can store payment information in its internal memory and process it for authorization and settlement later when a connection becomes available.
• The PAX S80 is one of the few EMV live terminals that allow tip adjustment for restaurants.
• Unlike most terminals that follow the European model of tipping at the point of sale, the PAX S80 allows the tip to be added after authorization using chip and signature, making the process more convenient for servers and customers alike.

The PAX S80 provides various reports to help merchants track and view information by date, by total, and more. Reports can be viewed on screen or printed for easy access.

The PAX S80 is PCI PTS 3.x approved for secure transactions, ensuring the highest level of security for both merchants and customers.

CVV is a 3-digit code found on the back of most credit cards, including Visa and MasterCard, while CID is a 4-digit code found on the front of American Express cards. These features help verify that the customer physically has possession of the credit card being used.
