Payments solution provider Westpay has announced plans to launch a range of payment terminals that will be built on Android operating system.

“Payments must work. Simple as that! With CARBON, Westpay brings a completely new payment experience to the market – a payment solution unlike any other,” the company said.

Dubbed CARBON, the new proposition supports cloud-based payment solutions, and tight integration to external POS apps. Furthermore, it integrates with Westpay’s current payment gateway.

Besides offering a speedy experience, the solution will also run third party apps without hampering the core payment functions.

Moreover, CARBON supports 4G and dual band WiFi with roaming capabilities. It addresses security concerns through PCI 5.x compliance.

Enabling a seamless payments experience for users is becoming vital. Today, customers desire and demand convenience, speed and also flexibility. To meet customer expectations, the Westpay payment terminals will also include a lightweight design and large screen.

“Big screens are not small matters. CARBON payment terminals have the largest screen to body ratio yet, whilst maintaining a small physical footprint. A premier design in a most robust package makes CARBON a grand experience for the user,” Westpay noted.

The Westpay payment terminals will roll out across Europe from early next year.
