Ocius Hits the Big 4-0
Commidea are pleased to announce that they have placed their 40,000th Ocius solution. Ocius is the fastest and most popular pre-approved Chip & PIN solutions available in the marketplace today, being widely found in the high street, mobile retail and hospitality sectors.
Since its launch, Commidea’s Ocius software has evolved to provide an advanced range of Chip & PIN solutions based upon a high speed IP network infrastructure. These solutions include: -
- The counter top Ocius Vx510 for high street retailers
- The new state of the art and ultra-sleek wireless Ocius Vx670 GPRS handheld device for hospitality and mobile retailers. This will soon be available as a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth solution.
- Ocius for PCs is the shooting star in the portfolio. It is the best value ‘next generation’ Chip & PIN solution on the market with a low monthly fee from as little as £9.99 per PoS which includes hardware (an APACS Common Criteria Approved PIN Pad), software and processing. It can be easily installed on any PC running Windows 2000 or higher via a single CD loaded with Ocius software and utilises the power of the PoS processor for ultra fast transaction processing speeds.
- Ocius will also be integral to Commidea’s Contactless Payment solution that will be available for September’s London launch.
Commidea’s Strategic Development Director, Bill Barritt, said, “These advanced suites of Ocius products ensures Commidea’s market-leading position as a forward-thinking and progressive payment processing systems developer. Ocius will also be the bed rock to Commidea’s Contactless Payments solution for the forthcoming London launch in September.”
”We’re proud to have hit the 40,000 target, particularly across such a wide and diverse range of clients. Now, we’re looking forward to the next 40,000!”
