The idea behind Poynt’s dual screens is that you won’t need to hand over a terminal or swivel
around the screen for customers to sign or add a tip, and both people using the machine have
some privacy.
Poynt currently accepts all forms of payment, including the newer EMV and NFC (contactless) technologies, as well as QR code
and barcode scanning. QR code scanning will allow the Poynt system to accept Ch ase Pay, a digital wallet that doesn’t utilize
tap-to-pay/NFC technology. Between accepting EMV, contactless payments, and QR codes, it’s fairly likely that the Poynt terminal
will be able to handle any new type of payment for awhile.
The Poynt system is still a credit card machine, not a full-fledged POS system. It’s closer to a cash register replacement. Poynt
does plan to offer additional POS system functions in the future, at which point the machine may become more of a point of sale
system.
Poynt offers an offline processing mode (also known as ”store and forward”) if a connection is not available. You can still accept payments in the offline mode to process at a later time, so you won’t miss sales just because of connection problems.
The Poynt machine is portable, so you can move around with it for any number of reasons. Maybe you want to offer curbside pickup at your restaurant – your staff can carry the Poynt terminal outside to take payment. Hitting a fair to sell your goods? Bring your Poynt machine.
The reporting app, Poynt HQ, offers information on transactions and trends as well as customer information. You can search sales data and export it for further analysis and business management. The reporting app offers information using smartphones or computers.
Poynt is fully PCI compliant, utilizes end-to-end encryption, and meets EMV requirements. Additionally, Poynt comes with 24 hour fraud and tamper detection to help ensure maximum safety and security.
The Poynt terminal connects to Wifi and 3G networks, and includes Bluetooth connectivity. Currently, Ethernet connectivity is not available, though a dock with Ethernet capability is in the works. A micro USB port allows connection for recharging the battery.
The cashier-facing screen is an 800 x 1280 pixel 7” touchscreen tablet display and includes a cashier-facing camera. The customer-facing screen is an 800 x 480 pixel 4.3” touchscreen display with an NFC antenna surrounding the touchscreen for easy contactless payments.
The Poynt terminal features a touchscreen display with an on-screen keypad. Optional external PIN pads may be supported if you prefer the feel of physical keys.
A built-in thermal printer is under the customer-facing screen, with the receipt slot facing the customer for quick access. Poynt recommends 2-1/4” x 16” printer rolls..
Poynt supports optional accessories if you need more from your machine. You can add cash registers, produce scales, check readers, and more
