Alpha Card Services Selects PAX as Preferred PIN pad Provider

Huntington Valley, PA — October 20, 2010 — Huntington Valley, PA based Alpha Card Services, www.alphacardservices.com, a leading payment processor and merchant acquirer, recently selected PAX Technology, Inc. as its preferred provider for PCI PTS compliant PIN pads.

“We are very pleased with the ease of deployment and reliability we have experienced with the SP20 secure PIN pad,” said Lazaros Kalemis, CEO, Alpha Card Services. “Due to recent changes in legislation such as the Durbin Amendment and the growth in PIN debit as a preferred method of payment for many consumers, our merchants are adding secure PIN pads to their existing POS terminals. By switching to the PAX SP20 we not only lowered our costs but also decreased the number of field failures. We are enjoying the peace and quiet that PAX POS solutions offer our customers and our support team. Also, we did not have to change our existing procedures to add the SP20 to our list of supported products.”

The SP20 PIN pad is rugged and well designed with a privacy shield and easy to use PIN pad. It is PCI 2.x compliant, making it a secure and compliant solution into the year 2017. The SP20 PIN pad easily integrates into existing POS terminals allowing merchants to become compliant with as little change as possible.

“PAX offers a complete range of POS solutions including PIN pads, countertop, mobile handheld and multi-lane terminals,” said Michael Mulcahy, PAX President & CEO. “We are very pleased Alpha Card Services has selected us as a preferred provider of such an important part of their solution and we are looking forward to continuing to provide reliable and cost-effective solutions to Alpha Card in the future.”
