The PAX A360 and A380 are Android payment terminals designed for modern retail environments where performance, security, flexibility, and long-term value all matter. Built on Android 14 with an Octa-Core processor, advanced security features, and high-resolution touchscreens, the A360 and A380 give retailers and payment partners a modern foundation for customer-facing payments. More than standalone PIN pads, they connect into the broader PAX ecosystem, including PAXSTORE, PxRetailer, and a network of payment and technology partners.
A Retail Payment Platform, Not Just Another PIN Pad
The A360 and A380 are designed to help payment providers and retailers modernize the checkout lane without giving up control of their payment infrastructure. With two screen sizes, flexible connectivity, Android 14, expanded memory, and PCI PTS 7.x security, the platform can support a range of retail payment environments while providing room for future applications and services. When paired with PAX software and partner solutions, the A360 and A380 become access points to a broader retail technology ecosystem built around flexibility and operational scale.
Android 14 Creates Room to Grow
Android 14 gives the A360 and A380 a modern software foundation for today’s retail applications and the evolving requirements of tomorrow’s payment environments. Rather than treating the PIN pad as a closed appliance, Android allows the terminal to support applications, integrations, and customer experiences beyond the transaction itself. That creates additional headroom for retailers and payment providers looking to extend the useful life of their payment hardware through software.
Connect the Lane to a Larger Ecosystem
The A360 and A380 work with PAXSTORE, giving partners access to a broad application ecosystem and tools for centralized device and application management. PAXSTORE supports more than 3,400 applications and provides a path for deploying, monitoring, and managing applications across connected devices. For retailers and payment providers managing larger estates, that means the terminal can become part of an operational platform rather than another device that has to be managed individually.
Processing Power for Busy Retail Environments
The A360 and A380 are powered by an Octa-Core processor built to support responsive performance across payment and Android applications. The processor combines four Cortex-A73 cores running at 2.0GHz with four Cortex-A53 cores running at 1.8GHz, providing a strong foundation for multitasking and demanding retail workloads. That processing capacity is part of a broader lifecycle strategy, giving partners the performance headroom to support applications and experiences as retail requirements continue to evolve.
More Headroom for the Retail Applications You Need
The A360 and A380 are designed with expanded memory to support Android applications, payment software, and additional retail experiences without treating storage as an afterthought. The platform supports 32GB of eMMC Flash with additional memory configurations available, while MicroSD expansion supports storage of up to 256GB. That capacity gives partners more room to build, deploy, and manage the applications that turn a payment terminal into a broader customer engagement endpoint.
Two Sizes, One Consistent Retail Experience
The A360 features a compact 6-inch display for environments where counter space matters, while the A380 provides an 8-inch display for applications that benefit from more screen real estate. Both models use a customer-facing, full-touch design that gives retailers more flexibility to present payment information, branded content, loyalty programs, QR codes, and other digital experiences. The unified platform also makes it easier for organizations to standardize their payment experience across different lanes and store formats.
Put More of the Checkout Experience in View
The A360’s 6-inch HD IPS touchscreen delivers a 1440 × 720 resolution, while the A380 provides an 8-inch HD IPS touchscreen at 1280 × 800 resolution. Both displays use multi-point capacitive touch technology and are designed to give customers a clear, intuitive interface at the point of payment. With up to 500 nits of brightness, the screens can also support branded experiences, loyalty engagement, digital receipts, QR interactions, and other customer-facing applications.
A Stronger Surface for Everyday Checkout
Retail payment terminals operate in environments where devices are touched, moved, and used throughout the day, so durability matters as much as performance. The A360 and A380 use 7H Corning Glass to provide a durable touchscreen surface designed for the demands of high-volume retail environments. Combined with a compact form factor and purpose-built payment hardware, the result is a terminal designed to remain part of the lane for the long term rather than becoming another short-cycle hardware replacement.
Designed for the Lanes That Keep Business Moving
The A360 and A380 are built for high-volume retail environments, with the A360 well suited to QSR, drive-thru, and attended checkout environments where a compact footprint is valuable. The A380’s larger display makes it particularly well suited to specialty retail, grocery, hypermarket, and self-checkout environments where customer engagement and on-screen information play a larger role. Together, the two devices give payment providers and retailers a consistent platform that can adapt to different lane requirements without requiring an entirely different technology strategy.
Give Customers More Ways to Pay
The A360 and A380 provide a modern foundation for in-person payments while giving partners the flexibility to connect the terminal to their preferred payment infrastructure. Their design supports traditional card acceptance alongside emerging payment experiences, including QR-based interactions and other application-driven customer experiences. PAX’s partner-oriented approach also means the devices can fit into existing payment ecosystems rather than requiring retailers to replace every layer of their payment stack.
Built for More Than Card Transactions
An integrated 8MP front-facing camera expands what the A360 and A380 can support beyond conventional card payment interactions. The camera can help enable QR-based payment and engagement experiences while giving developers additional flexibility when designing Android applications for retail environments. A camera indicator also provides a visible signal when the camera is active, supporting a more transparent customer experience.
Modernize the Lane. Keep Control of the Stack.
The A360 and A380 give payment providers and retailers a practical path to modernizing customer-facing payments without unnecessarily limiting what comes next. With modern Android performance, PCI PTS 7.x security, flexible connectivity, durable displays, and access to PAXSTORE and the broader PAX ecosystem, they are built to support today’s retail requirements while creating room for tomorrow’s. The result is more than a new payment terminal: it is a flexible foundation for partners building the next generation of retail payments.
Security That Watches the Physical Environment
The A360 and A380 use light and proximity sensors as part of their active anti-skimming approach, adding another layer of awareness around the payment device. The terminals are designed to detect potential skimming activity with reported detection accuracy of 99.9 percent, helping address one of the most persistent physical security concerns in payment environments. These capabilities work alongside PCI PTS 7.x SRED security to provide protection that is built into the terminal rather than treated as an afterthought.
Stay Connected Across the Retail Environment
The A360 and A380 support dual-band Wi-Fi across 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks along with Bluetooth 5.0 for flexible wireless connectivity. Optional 4G connectivity provides another deployment option for environments where cellular connectivity can simplify installation or provide additional network flexibility. Combined with LAN connectivity, these options allow payment providers and integrators to select an approach that fits the infrastructure already in place.
Flexible Connections for Different Deployments
The A360 and A380 provide connectivity options designed to accommodate the realities of modern retail installations, including a PoE port and USB Type-C. This gives integrators and deployment teams additional flexibility when designing how terminals are powered and connected within the payment environment. The platform also supports LAN connectivity and optional 4G, helping the devices adapt to different integration and deployment scenarios.
Extend the Value of the Hardware.
The Terminal Is the Starting Point
The value of the A360 and A380 extends beyond their hardware specifications. With PAXSTORE, PxRetailer, common kernel technology, and a broad partner ecosystem, PAX provides the infrastructure that helps payment providers and retailers deploy, manage, customize, and extend their terminal estate. That combination gives organizations a way to think about payment hardware as a longer-term technology investment rather than simply a replacement for an aging PIN pad.
One Platform for Different Retail Lanes.
Standardize the Experience Without Standardizing Every Store.
Retailers do not all operate the same way, and payment infrastructure should not force every lane into the same configuration. The A360 and A380 give partners two form factors on a common platform, making it easier to match device size to the environment while maintaining a consistent technology strategy. From high-volume attended checkout to grocery, specialty retail, and self-checkout, the platform is designed to give partners a practical way to modernize payments while maintaining flexibility.
