The terminal is powered by the Android operating platform and it has a wide range of connectivity, including 3G, 4G, WiFi and Bluetooth networks. It comes with a high definition colour touch screen display and a super fast thermal printer. It also generates electronic transaction reports every business day to enhance operational efficiency.

“The all-in-one digital payment terminal will help our customers to strengthen their payment and cash management capabilities,” Ng said.
The payment terminals can handle mobile Quick Response (QR) code payment services including Alipay, Boost, Touch ‘n Go, UnionPay QR and WeChat Pay, as well as card payments such as Visa, MasterCard, MyDebit, JCB and UnionPay, making payment management simpler and more efficient for physical retail merchants.
