PAX TERMINALS RECEIVE CLASS A CERTIFICATION

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. May 9th 2013 — PAX Technology, the fastest growing terminal manufacturer in the world, announces the completion of Class A certifications on the PAX S90 and the SP20 products from Heartland Payment Systems (NYSE: HPY), one of the nation’s largest payments processors.

The PAX S90 is a low cost wireless solution, offered with either GPRS or CDMA, which provides a small form factor and offers easy handling and superior portability.  The PAX SP20 is a secure PIN Pad that surpasses the reliability of any other peripheral in the market.  Heartland provides both the S90 and the SP20 with Voltage security and Heartland’s E3™ End-to-End Encryption technology.  Unlike point-to-point encryption, E3 provides the highest level of security by encrypting and securing credit and debit card data from the moment a card is swiped or hand-keyed all the way through the processing of the transaction.

“We’re excited to showcase the PAX products with Heartland Payment Systems,” says Andy Chau, president and CEO of PAX Technology, Inc. “The PAX S90 and SP20 will provide Heartland’s customers with the reliability and security for which they are accustomed.  Overall, PAX worked with Heartland to provide a feature rich solution at an affordable price for their customers.”

“Heartland can offer these PAX terminals at reasonable pricing while still providing a superior product with highly advanced security features,” says Michael English, Heartland’s executive director of product development.  “As long-term partners, Heartland and PAX will continue collaborating on products and features that benefit Heartland’s merchant clients and consumers.”
