World's first Android PayPhones launched by PAX Technology

• M30 & M50 are modern Android smartphones with inbuilt payment acceptance & certified to the latest PCI and payment industry standards.

• Make calls, access Google Play, accept Chip & PIN and Contactless cards as well as Mobile Wallets and QR code transactions.

Following a successful and prolonged pilot phase in Brazil, PAX Technology, the world's leading payment terminal solutions provider, is making the M30 & M50 Android PayPhone models available to all international clients.

These new M-series products are the first-ever smartphones with inbuilt point of sale technology that combine the benefits of a secure EMV & PCI 6 certified payment terminal within a modern Android smartphone ecosystem.

The M30 & M50 are an innovative alternative for acquiring banks and payment service providers who are looking to strengthen partnerships with telecoms operators, delivering a revolutionary new service for their merchants and customers.

Jack Lu, CEO of PAX Technology, commented: “The M30 and M50 are compelling devices, not just because of their technology, but in how they have the potential to revolutionize retail. You can now accept payments, make voice & video calls and interact with customers on social media, all via a single device.”

In Brazil, where many tens of thousands of the M-series models were deployed, entrepreneurial merchants and businesses are now marketing goods & services by filming videos and taking photos, and then selling and accepting payment, all via these innovative PAX devices.

M30 is designed to bridge the gap between customer and POS system capabilities, enables companies and entrepreneurs to run an eCommerce business on the go. All major global payment methods can be accepted, while at the same time efficiently handling sales & inventory management. A secure PINpad is located on the opposite side to the full screen display, turning the smartphone into a secure payment device.

M50 takes the user experience even further by enhancing the M30 features with faster processing power running on Android 11, a larger 5.7-inch HD+ display for a better working experience. Both models are powered by advanced battery technology allowing up to 78 hours of standby time.

Larry Sun, VP for the LACIS region at PAX Technology, concluded: “PAX continues to push the boundaries of innovation by bringing to market products which are helping our international clients win more business and deliver new profitable services. We are helping redefine mobile commerce, enabling merchants to be more effective and to process everything they need on the spot, anytime & anywhere. This is the beginning of a new era for mobile business, and we are proud that our global clients appreciate the competitive edge which PAX solutions are bringing to their businesses.”
