Welcome to the World of Wireless Payment Terminals

Product: Mobile Mate
Company: ExaDigm, Inc., and marketed by ABANCO International, LLC

In the world of terminal manufacturers, here's a name we think you'll be hearing more of: ExaDigm, Inc. ExaDigm is a developer of wireless and wired solutions for the point of sale. The company offers several modular, patent pending POS devices with wireless and Ethernet connectivity, and one of these is the ExaDigm Mobile Mate.

This hand-held wireless terminal has a modular and flexible product architecture, which enables components, applications and encryption standards to be easily upgraded without having to replace the entire terminal. Merchants can easily switch from a wireless, cellular connection to a high speed Internet connection such as DSL or a cable modem.

For authorizing debit, credit, EBT and check conversion transactions over wireless networks, the device provides interchangeable modem modules, including CDMA/1XRTT, GSM/GPRS, Wireless LAN (802.11b), Mobitex, Motient, CDPD, 900Mhz and more.

The Mobile Mate can be used throughout wireless networks including Motient, Verizon and Cingular (and AT&T). For Internet-based payments, the terminal uses SSL 128-bit encryption technology, which allows retailers to accept and process credit and debit payments securely over the Internet.

ExaDigm's products use the Linux operating system for easy integration of new technologies such as Ethernet and radio frequency identification (RFID) and their accompanying applications, and for the attachment of peripherals like check imaging devices and biometric devices.

This terminal also has Host (Master) based USB connectivity, which allows easy connection of peripherals.

Through a partnership with ExaDigm, Inc., ABANCO International, LLC is offering the terminal.
