VX Terminal Replacements

In this article, Robert is bringing you information on the latest VX Terminal Replacements.
Verifone is finalizing certifications for their various platforms just in time to kick-off the New Year.
Within the last year or so, Verifone decided to End-of-Life (EOL) the VX series of devices. For the past decade, this line has been the workhorse of the industry that many have heavily relied on. That said, there are high hopes that the new set of devices will be just as dependable as the VX series.
Here is a deeper look at the replacements.
V200c
Verifone has released this device as their new countertop model to replace the VX520. This device includes a quality 2.8” color LCD screen, along with memory upgrades and processor improvements. The printer now offers faster speeds for receipt printing and is compatible with the latest NFC/CTLS payment methods. Additionally, it is PCI PTS5.x certified and Verifone’s new architecture includes an app marketplace so merchants may easily add additional tools to help them run their business. To name a few certifications, it is currently on World Pay, First Data Nashville, and just completed its TSYS certification.
Verifone P200/400 Pin Pad
To replace the VX 805/820, Verifone has released the P200/P400 devices. Similar to the V200c, these devices have a 2.8” Color LCD screen with upgraded processor and memory to ensure that the speed of the pin pads stay a fast speed while providing the features of the new VeriFone marketplace. It also features POE capabilities, for fewer cords and a cleaner presentation. The new interface is expected to provide a more user-friendly experience to the customer as well. This device is also certified on World Pay, First Data Nashville and just completed its TSYS certification.
Only time will tell if these devices live up to the generation that came before them. I would expect bumps in the road, as with all new software and hardware, keep your eyes peeled for more information. I will be sending out my thoughts on the PAX roadmap in 2021 now that their annual conference has wrapped up, so stay tuned for those updates.
