The Nayax VPOS Media 4 is an Android-based payment terminal engineered with the unattended retail and self-service categories in mind to offer customers a seamless way to complete transactions.
The terminal maintains a compact design that will support both contactless and chip-and-PIN payments, and is completely suited for unattended locations including parking lots, kiosks, vending machines, EV charging stations, laundromats and more. The terminal handles payment processing, while also offering support for loyalty programs, remove device management and customer engagement tools. The platform supports NFC, EMV and QR code payments.
CEO and Chairman Yair Nechmad commented on the background for the Nayax VPOS Media 4 saying, "Many legacy unattended terminals were designed for low-value vending transactions and are not equipped for high-value PIN payments, evolving compliance requirements or telecom network sunset resilience. As unattended services expand into areas like EV charging, parking and kiosks, operators need payment technology capable of supporting larger transactions securely and reliably.”
