    摘要: A system for reading a data record stripe on a credit card which includes an injection molded case including a card guide slot integrally molded into the case near one side thereof and a read head window integrally formed in one sidewall of the card guide slot. A data read head assembly having a read head on a front face thereof is mounted in the read head window and is spring biased toward the wall of the card slot opposite the read head window. A circuit arrangement is coupled to the read head assembly for detecting data signals on a card passing through the slot and converting the data signals to a substantially square wave signal pattern representing binary signal data in the form of positive and negative signal transitions of the square wave signal. A microcomputer circuit coupled to the circuit arrangement is programmed to detect positive and negative signal transitions, to register in individual memory locations the time interval between successive signal transitions, and to reconstruct the binary signal data from the pattern of the registered time intervals.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and devices for Bluetooth numeric comparison pairing between a handheld payment terminal and a base station that is incapable of displaying digits of a base station Bluetooth pairing code are disclosed. A handheld payment terminal computer program may initiate Bluetooth numeric pairing with a base station; generate a handheld payment terminal Bluetooth pairing code; capture a coded light sequence emitted by LEDs on the base station; decode the coded light sequence to determine the base station Bluetooth pairing code; cause the base station Bluetooth pairing code and the handheld payment terminal Bluetooth pairing code to be displayed on a display; and in response to Bluetooth pairing code match, pairing the handheld payment terminal with the base station. The base station provides access to one or more networks and/or data communication to the handheld payment terminal when paired.

    摘要: Systems and methods for performing sales transactions using a hybrid multi-tenant cloud and single-tenant on-premises point-of-sale system. The multi-tenant cloud sub-system includes a remote processor that is communicably coupled with a first point-of-sale terminal at a first location and a second point-of-sale terminal at a second location, that is different than the first location. The remote processor is configured to process sales transaction information from the first and second point-of-sale terminals. The single-tenant on-premises sub-system includes a local processor communicably coupled with a third point-of-sale terminal at a third location, different than the first and second locations. The single-tenant on-premises sub-system is configured to process local sales transaction information from the third point-of-sale terminal and transmit the processed local sales transaction information to the multi-tenant cloud sub-system. The sales transaction information from the first and second point-of-sale terminals is synchronized with the local sales transaction information.
