4G card reader and mobile chip and PIN machine
Need to take card payments away from the counter? A 4G card reader works on its own mobile signal, so you are not tied to the shop Wi-Fi.
Built-in 4G SIM
The PAX A920 Pro is a portable chip and PIN machine with its own 4G SIM included, so it can take payments on the move.
Wi-Fi backup
If you are in range of Wi-Fi it can use it, and it switches between Wi-Fi and 4G automatically so you do not miss a sale.
Printer and dock
A built-in receipt printer and a charging dock mean it works at the table, at the door or on a delivery, then goes back on charge.
