RP Solutions Certifies Orion Payment Terminal With Integrated Check Scanning

RP Solutions, Inc., an inspired software developer and solutions provider for electronic and image based payment processing, today announced that it has certified the Orion payment terminal from 4Access Communications, a provider of advanced point-of-sale payment technology. Orion permits merchants to accept and electronically process not only credit cards, debit cards, loyalty cards, EBT and gift cards but also scan checks for Check 21 image processing, all with a single device. It simplifies payment processing for merchants and offers ISOs an opportunity for incremental check services revenue.

"The Orion is a one-of-a-kind device," said David Johnson, President, RP Solutions. "It performs the functions of a POS receipt printer, credit card payment terminal and check scanner. This reduces the number of devices required at the POS saving space, equipment costs and maintenance. And unlike other devices that can only process personal checks through the ACH network, the Orion can process personal, business or government checks because it uses check images to clear them through Check 21 image exchange networks." Mr. Johnson continued, "Having a single device that can handle all these forms of payment makes life a lot simpler for merchants. And it gives ISOs the opportunity for new hardware sales and substantial recurring revenue from check verification, clearing and guarantee services."

"RP Solutions is leading the way when it comes to bringing innovative payment processing solutions to merchants," said Steven Davis, CEO of 4Access Communications. "Using our Orion terminal, they've created a comprehensive check electronification solution that gives ISOs a strategic competitive edge. It's a great complement to the credit and debit card solutions ISOs already offer."

The Orion terminal features a high resolution display, 16-key keypad, 3-track magnetic card reader and IP or dial mode for authorization and verification transactions. The integrated receipt printer has drop-in paper loading and fast thermal printing. The unit is configured with an inkjet cancellation printer.

4Access was awarded the "Technology Innovation Award" for 2008 by the Electronic Transactions Association (ETA) in recognition of the company's technology leadership and product innovation with its Orion payment terminal.
