What is a Chip and PIN machine?

 

A Chip and PIN machine allows you to accept money from your customers for your goods and services.

It’s another name for a card machine or card reader, the name referring to the technology it runs on.

Chip and PIN machines are simple to use. Customers simply put their credit or debit card into the slot at the bottom of the machine and enter their four-digit PIN number. This PIN number is stored in the card chip, if the two numbers match, the payment goes through!

There have been advances in technology in recent years, with contactless payments becoming increasingly popular. Great news – all of our Chip and PIN solutions allow you to accept contactless payments!
