Turning Discontinuation of Datapac into an Opportunity for Retailers

Datapac™ 3201 service is being phased out by Canadian telecom vendors. Do you have a migration plan? Precidia's solutions can be implemented quickly and easily, so you'll have peace of mind knowing your service will be uninterrupted. In addition, you'll gain faster, lower cost transactions that can make a significant impact on your business.

Precidia's solutions feature a protocol conversion device, which connects an existing debit/credit payment terminal to an IP network via Ethernet. These devices can connect almost any dial-based payment device to a DSL, frame or cable IP network. By routing them over an IP network, transactions are dramatically faster than dial, and the retailer eliminates the cost of a dedicated dial line. Recognizing the importance of securing cardholder data, Precidia offers solutions for private and public network connectivity.

Public Network Solution

The iPocket (with the 3201 load), together with POSLynx220 multiport payment router drive this solution. The iPocket converts RS232 data to IP while the POSLynx220 ensures the integrity of financial data with SSL encryption and a fully compliant design. The POSLynx220 features 2 dial and 2 serial ports, allowing for the integration of additional store equipment on the same IP network. Precidia's most feature-rich product, the POSLynx220 also delivers dial back up in case of host failure, and routing to multiple destinations by card type.
