OPTION 1:  

Verifone Reader Equipment

        •  Transaction processing time approximately 30 seconds

        •  Cost for reader and printer $200-$500 depending upon

            source and printer model

Certified Models:

           both LionCash+ and credit card transactions (credit card

           application must be supported by third party)

        •  Any Receipt Printer certified by Verifone to work with the

Note:  Older terminals that only read Track 1 will NOT work.

Terminals and printers may be purchased from your bank, National Ram Electronics (607-594-4084), Vital Merchant Services (800-348-1700), or a retailer of your choice.  Although we do not require that new equipment be purchased, we have had several instances of merchants purchasing used equipment that did not function properly or was not compatible with the LionCash+ network.  Be sure to acquire your equipment through a reputable source.  It is the merchant's responsibility to provide compatible equipment in good working order.

National Ram Electronics and Vital Merchant Services both have a great track record of providing solid equipment.  National Ram Electroncs is a great source for purchasing refurbished units offered at a discounted price.  In addition, their equipment is covered by a one-year warranty with free replacement unit shipping during the warranty period.

OPTION 2:  

Blackboard AT3000 Activity Reader Equipment

        •  Transaction processing time approximately 2-5 seconds
