LAS VEGAS, April 17, 2018 — Vantiv, now Worldpay, Inc. (NYSE: WP) announced today at ETA TRANSACT (Booth #410) it is adding the handheld PAX A920 to its line of SmartPay Series™ terminals.

“At Worldpay we strive to create solutions for merchants that meet the new and changing demands of their customers, which is why we created our SmartPay Series,” said Jon Pollock, SVP of Product Management at Worldpay. “By adding a variety of form factors, and now the handheld PAX A920, merchants can accept payments as well as streamline the same loyalty, payroll, inventory and sales tools across multiple smart devices.”
With an open-solution design, powered by AEVI, Worldpay can offer its channel partners and merchants innovative terminals, all of which go beyond the POS with applications that will help grow revenue through loyalty and analytics tools.
“From the outset, we’ve sought to deliver unique flexibility and choice to merchants, by enabling the PAX A920 to our app marketplace, we continue to do just that,” said Mike Camerling, CEO at AEVI. “We will continue to work with Worldpay to deploy our platform on more devices and provide even more business applications to further meet the needs of businesses in this changing payments landscape.”
The PAX A920 features a sleek design with a large touchscreen, a fast thermal printer and contactless capability making it ideal for line-busting, pay-at-the-table and other trending payment methods. The PAX A920 is expected to be available from Worldpay starting in June 2018.
