  • (iPad device not included)

Mobile POS For Seamless Transactions

  • With this credit card reader you can accept magnetic stripe cards, EMV chip cards, and contactless NFC payment transactions in one iOS card reader.
  • Turn your mobile device into a carry-out, drive-thru, curbside pickup, and delivery secure payment device.

mPOS with a Familiar Form Factor

Models made for iPad Air devices are larger and ready for mounting with the standardized 100mm VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) mount. The fixed pattern accommodates various off-the-shelf mounts. Devices made for iPad mini 2/3 models are better for a mobile handheld solution that smoothly fits back into pockets and aprons.

Mobile Card Reader that Speeds Time to Market

Integration is made easier with MagTek's SDKs and APIs for faster development.

Secured by the MagneSafe Security Architecture

MagneSafe® is a digital identification and authentication architecture that safeguards consumers and their personal data. Designed to exceed PCI regulations, MagneSafe leverages strong encryption, secure tokenization, counterfeit detection, tamper recognition, data relevance and integrity, and dynamic digital transaction signatures, which together validate and protect the entire transaction and each of its components.

Mounting points make self-service and unattended solutions easier

Contactless capability opens a world of options when creating line-busting solutions, including walking team members, or stand-alone kiosks.

Teller line automation with contactless capability

Enhance the consumer experience with branch automation solutions that bring digital banking with contactless solutions for faster service.
