Newland NPT Simplifies US Payment Deployments with Fiserv L3 Certification for Android Terminals

Certification gives ISVs, ISOs and payment partners a faster route to US deployment without taking on processor certification

Atlanta, Ga., US. 20th April 2026: Newland Payment Technology (NPT), a global provider of payment terminals and technology solutions, today announced that its payment application, PayExplorer, has successfully completed Level 3 (L3) certification for processing on the Fiserv Rapid Connect to Nashville platform.

The certification applies across Newland’s Android-based payment terminal portfolio, giving independent software vendors (ISVs), ISOs, payment partners and point-of-sale (POS) software providers a faster and simpler route to deployment in the US through a pre-certified payment application.

In the highly fragmented US payments environment, L3 certification can be a major operational and technical hurdle. For ISVs, ISOs and software partners focused on getting solutions to market quickly, a pre-certified payment application offers a simpler deployment path without the added time and complexity of processor certification.

With PayExplorer, software providers can use a pre-certified payment application to support semi-integrated deployments on Fiserv, allowing them to focus on their own software, user experience and value proposition, while Newland manages the payment infrastructure and certification requirements behind the scenes.

By addressing these requirements upfront, partners can move more quickly from development to deployment and bring solutions to market faster across the North American payments ecosystem.

Heather Hatch, Head of Solutions and Business Support, North America at Newland NPT, commented: “Completing this certification with Fiserv is an important step for us in the US. It reflects a significant amount of investment and technical expertise behind the scenes, but that’s exactly what makes it valuable to the partners and customers relying on our technology."

“By managing processor certification at the payment application level, we help reduce complexity for software providers and payment partners, making deployment easier in a demanding market."

The latest milestone builds on Newland’s TSYS certification announced in February, as well as its recent work with Fiserv as an integrated partner, reinforcing its role as a technology partner helping simplify and support payment infrastructure beyond the terminal itself.

It also reflects the company’s continued investment in North America, focused on enabling strategic partners to deploy and scale more efficiently.
