- Front or rear mounting to fit different enclosure designs.
- Optional add-on boxes for MDB/EXE protocol compatibility, power conversion, and additional I/O ports for existing controllers.

How does Ingenico ensure security and compliance for self-service payments?
Ingenico self-service terminals are certified to PCI PTS standards (latest models: v6), which cover hardware security and PIN entry requirements.
Key protection features include:
- Tamper detection and response — terminals are rendered inoperable if a breach is attempted.
- Encrypted PIN entry to safeguard sensitive data.
- Secure key storage and support for Remote Key Injection (RKI) for faster, safer key updates.
- PCI-validated P2PE support, which encrypts cardholder data from the point of interaction and simplifies PCI DSS compliance for merchants.
- Secure estate management tools for remote firmware updates, configuration changes, and patch deployment.
Security is maintained throughout the device lifecycle, from initial deployment to decommissioning.
Are Ingenico’s terminals accessible for users with disabilities?
Accessibility is an important part of Ingenico’s design approach, ensuring payment is possible for all users, including those with disabilities.
Features include:
- Tactile keypads with distinct, raised keys for PIN entry.
- High-contrast color displays for better readability in bright or low-light conditions.
- Scalable font sizes for customers with visual impairments.
- Optional audio guidance through built-in or external speakers to assist blind or partially sighted users.
These features help operators comply with accessibility regulations while improving customer satisfaction.
