Combination of Equinox Luxe Terminals with
FreedomPay’s Smart and Secure Architecture Elevates the Customer
Payment Experience
Equinox Payments (“Equinox”), a leading provider of payment
terminals, applications and support services, today announced
a relationship with FreedomPay, the global leader in secure
commerce technology for lodging, gaming, retail, restaurants,
stadiums and other hospitality merchants, to integrate FreedomPay’s
secure technology into Equinox’s Luxe line of retail payment
terminals.
The FreedomPay Advanced Commerce Platform is the first
PCI-validated point-to-point encryption (P2PE) solution featuring
EMV, NFC, Dynamic Currency Conversion and real-time data
capabilities that delivers on a global scale. By electing
FreedomPay as their technology partner, Equinox can make payment
transactions seamless and simpler for POS solution providers and
merchants.
“The evolution of consumer behavior is driving merchants to
innovate the payments experience,” said Matthew Donnelly, vice
president of security and solutions at FreedomPay. “With the
ever-changing payments landscape, hospitality merchants and
retailers are looking for simple, secure, and reliable ways to
accept payments while enhancing the customer experience. By
partnering with Equinox, we’re able to provide merchants with a
secure, end-to-end experience that enables innovative,
customer-centric payment solutions.”
Featured in the Luxe family are the elegant Luxe 8000i, designed
for fixed acceptance areas including retail countertops and hotel
registration desks, and the modular Luxe 6000m, ideal for both
countertop and mobile acceptance uses like local roaming, line
busting and field-level payments. The combination of the Luxe 6000i
with FreedomPay’s Pay-at-Table solution extends an efficient and
improved dining experience that allows guests the freedom to pay
their check right at the table. Magnetic-stripe, EMV and NFC
contactless payments are supported, and the same software can run
across all devices in the Luxe line. In addition, the solutions
will be fully integrated with real time tracking, security alerts,
and updates via FreedomPay’s Device Management Portal.
“We are proud to team up with FreedomPay to deliver the benefits
of gateway connectivity and PCI-validated P2PE to partners and
customers,” said Rob Hayhow, vice president, Equinox Payments.
“This results in a significant reduction in both the time and
complexities related to PCI DSS compliance, and extends peace of
mind to retailers.”
Equinox has also integrated its L5300™ multi-lane terminal to
FreedomPay’s secure platform. Designed specifically for high-volume
retailers, the L5300 boasts EMV/smart card, contactless and NFC
capabilities.
