Touch-Free EMV

Whether you choose to integrate with Tenerum or have Tenerum integrate with your existing system, our Touch-Free solutions offer a seamless implementation of EMV devices. Simply position the device next to your POS or PMS workstation, and you're ready to go.

The Touch Free EMV device seamlessly integrates with the Tenerum Gateway, establishing a direct connection to ensure secure payment processing. By aligning payment data from the EMV device with transaction details sent from the POS/PMS system, this solution efficiently completes the payment request while entirely removing sensitive card data from the POS/PMS environment.

Upon transaction completion, the Tenerum Gateway delivers PCI-compliant information to the POS/PMS, including tender type, authorization code, and a token for future adjustments. This design empowers the POS/PMS and the merchant with full control over transactions, with the Tenerum Gateway serving as a crucial intermediary between the POS/PMS and the EMV device.

How Touch-Free EMV Works:

Features:

  • No direct integration with the EMV device is required.

  • The POS/PMS system has no direct interaction with the EMV device.

  • No third-party middleware software is necessary.

  • Payment data remains completely separate from the POS/PMS.

  • The POS/PMS system avoids the complexities of EMV certification.

  • Supports processing of EMV (contact and contactless) and swipe transactions, including PIN debit, gift cards, and private label cards.

  • Transaction responses are tokenized, allowing for future adjustments and the creation of new transactions.

  • Sensitive data is never stored on the EMV device; it is securely stored at the Tenerum Gateway.

  • All transactions are encrypted end-to-end, from the point of entry to the Tenerum Gateway, using P2PE technology.
