Terminals built
for the counter.
Not the pitch deck.

If they're Android-based PAX or Sunmi devices with recent firmware, yes — we flash Paybyrd OS on your existing fleet in under an hour per device, fully remote. Legacy Telium, Verix, or proprietary locked-down terminals can't run Paybyrd; we swap those out in a staged rollout with zero sales downtime.

A replacement courier is dispatched inside the hour. Most swaps arrive within 24h — often within 4h in Lisbon, Madrid, Porto, or Barcelona. We hold same-model spares at the nearest regional hub. You never count cash at the till because we couldn't ship fast enough.

Yes. Every Paybyrd terminal has store-and-forward mode. Transactions queue locally and settle the instant connectivity returns. You can sell through a Wi-Fi outage, a 4G dead zone, or a power dip onto battery. Typical buffer: 500+ transactions per device. Zero dropped sales.

At €199 for Maverick and €225 for Renegade or Rawhide, buying breaks even on rental in roughly 17 months. Titan (€599) is the one device where long-term rental keeps winning on TCO once you factor in swap + SIM + OTA coverage. Rent if you're scaling, buy if the fleet is stable — most merchants rent the first year and transition to ownership as operations settle.

Fully. Lock screen, boot logo, tip prompt copy, receipt layout, color scheme, and language — all white-labeled. Your customers see your brand end-to-end; Paybyrd stays invisible unless you choose to show us. Typical rollout: one day once we have your brand assets.

Ten minutes per register, typically. The UI is a consumer-grade Android app — anyone who has used a smartphone already knows the gestures. We run shadow-mode rollouts where old and new terminals coexist for a week so staff learn without pressure. Zero sales lost to ramp-up.

Pre-built connectors for SAP, Oracle, Host PMS, Newhotel, Moloni, Vendus, Primavera, WooCommerce, Magento, Shopify, and 40+ more. For custom stacks, a REST API + webhooks your engineers can integrate in an afternoon. If your POS runs on iPad or Windows, we ship a companion app that pairs with the terminal in minutes.

Paybyrd is PCI DSS Level 1 certified end-to-end, with PCI 6 SRED hardware on every active device. Using our terminals collapses your PCI scope to SAQ-B-IP — the lightest questionnaire for physical devices. We handle every annual re-certification cycle; your bank stops sending PCI questionnaires.

When a foreign card taps the reader, InstaTax matches the BIN against eligible tourist-issuing banks in under 200ms. If eligible, the terminal quietly offers the refund right on screen — the customer completes the claim on their phone via an SMS link. No paper forms, no staff training, no downloads. You earn a share of every completed refund, paid out daily. Remote activation on your existing fleet takes a day.

Merchants typically see +14% gratuity uplift from smart contextual prompts versus flat amount entry, and +23% repeat tippers once the staff member's name shows on screen. Tips are opt-in, never forced, and paid out daily to the server who rang the ticket. Pooling, splits, and tronc models are all supported. Most teams prefer it within the first shift.

Yes — we publish a native Android SDK (Intents + typed callbacks), a JavaScript SDK for web-based POS, and a full REST API for cloud-triggered payments. Sandbox access is free and delivered within 24h of signup. PCI scope stays with us — your app never touches card data. A typical first integration ships in under a week.

No. Paybyrd is acquirer-agnostic — keep your existing banking relationships, your current processing rates, your in-flight contracts. We run on top of them. If you do want to consolidate, we can also act as your acquirer across 90+ markets, but that's a separate conversation.
