Learning About the Terminal

The Moneris VX 520 is an all-in-one handheld POS solution featuring a backlit display, embedded contactless reader, integrated printer and keypad. The communications hardware is on-board as well, conveniently tucked into a covered compartment on the underside of the terminal. The VX 520 terminal can also be operated with an optional external PINpad.

The display screen displays prompts for you to respond to as well as other prompts for the customer. During transactions that require customer input, you will need to pass the terminal back and forth so that you and the customer can view prompts and respond to them using the touchscreen and/or keypad.

The VX 520 supports magnetic stripe and chip cards for debit and credit transactions, contactless cards for credit (and some debit) transactions, and magnetic stripe cards for purchasing card transactions.
