Ingenico has launched the RP170c, an audio jack-based mPOS dongle that can accept
payments made by mobile phone.
The RP170c offers support for both NFC/contactless and mag-stripe payments via a 3.5mm standard audio jack that can be plugged into any iOS or Android device.
The kit comes with an audible buzzer and color LEDs to signal completed contactless transaction and a software developer kit for integration with other mobile applications.
Ingenico claims the dongle is the first of its kind to offer mobile-to-mobile transactions from the likes of Apple Pay, Google Wallet and Visa payWave, alongside common-or-garden card tapping and swiping.
