SumUp launches all-in-one register

LONDON-OCTOBER 20, 2016 - SumUp, the leading mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) company, today introduces the next evolution of POS registers with its new product “Air Register”. The offer allows POS software providers to extend their hardware portfolio with an all-in-one hardware solution, including an EMV card terminal.

SumUp Air Register includes:

• SumUp EMV card reader to accept chip, magnetic stripe cards and contactless NFC payments, incl. Apple Pay and Android Pay.

• iPad mini to use with any POS register software integrated with the SumUp payments platform (or the SumUp app).

• Standard size thermal receipt printer.

• Wooden oak case made from sustainable forestry.

The Air Register has been designed and built by SumUp and works smoothly with SumUp’s existing EMV card terminals, payment processing platform and risk and anti-fraud system. By integrating with the SumUp open platform, POS software providers can offer a smooth payment acceptance experience in their native or mobile browser-based apps, without having to go through the trouble of certifying with card schemes or acquirers and maintaining PCI compliance. With a single integration that takes just a few hours, software providers can take payments in over 15 countries on three continents.

Daniel Klein, CEO of SumUp, comments: “Over the last year, we have experienced huge demand from tablet-based cash register providers to be able to connect their apps with our open payments platform. At the same time we have identified a lack of a beautiful, all-in-one POS hardware piece. With the launch of Air Register we are now filling this gap and are enabling our partners to offer their apps in a stunning package.”

The company will present the new product at Money20/20 in Las Vegas from October 23-26, 2016.
