PAX Technology, the world's leading electronic payment terminal solution provider, partnered with the Japanese local gateway services provider, Link Processing to support Yanmar Stadium Nagai in Osaka for cashless payment.

Link Processing implemented PAX A920 SmartPOS terminals, namely Anywhere A9, in the Cerezo Osaka football club store and ticket booths of Yanmar Stadium Nagai. The A920 SmartPOS terminal is an ideal solution to facilitate the shift towards a cashless society for Japanese acquirers and retailers. It supports large spectrum of payment methods not only credit card, electronic money, FeliCa e-wallet and d POINT, but also international and domestic QR code payments including UnionPay, Naver Pay, PayPay, Line Pay etc. Android-based terminal A920 is supported by MAXSTORE, an open software distribution platform, which enables merchants to install business applications in a flexible way. The cutting-edge features of A920 allow merchants to manage franchise stores on a central platform, shifting the form of management, bringing comprehensive payment methods and improving customer experience.

Cerezo Osaka is a professional football club playing in the J1 League (Japan Professional Football League) where Yanmar Stadium Nagai is home ground of the club with a seating capacity up to 45,000. The large-scale sporting events such as the football matches will attract a significant number of football fans, and it is challenging to complete payment transactions seamlessly. Simplifying payment process is essential to bring convenience to customers. A920 is an all-in-one terminal which can handle cashless payment transactions without additional devices such as barcode scanner and contactless R/W terminal.

In recent years, the Japanese government has dedicated to promoting cashless payments for improving quality and efficiency of payment transactions. The partnership of PAX and Link Processing to launch Anywhere A9 (PAX A920) will facilitate the shift of cashless payments in Japan. Looking forward, PAX will continue to cooperate with Link Processing and provide more payment solutions for the development of business.
