“We’re excited to showcase PAX products with Heartland Payment Systems,” said PAX Technology President and CEO Andy Chau.
“The PAX S90 and SP20 will provide Heartland’s customers with the reliability and security for which they are accustomed. Overall, PAX worked with Heartland to provide a feature-rich solution at an affordable price for their customers.”
The PAX S90 is a low cost wireless solution offered with either GPRS or CDMA while the PAX SP20 is a secure PIN Pad that surpasses the reliability of any other peripheral in the market.
“Heartland can offer these PAX terminals at reasonable prices while still providing a superior product with highly advanced security features,” said Heartland Executive Director Michael English.
“As long-term partners, Heartland and PAX will continue collaborating on products and features that benefit Heartland’s merchant clients and consumers,” he added.

PAX Shenzhen also announced the appointment of the Egyptian Bureau for Engineering (EBE) as an official PAX channel partner to deploy point of sale terminal solutions for acquiring banks, mobile airtime providers and government agencies in Egypt and nearby countries such as Sudan and Libya.
PAX has secured orders from EBE for over 3,000 countertop S80 terminals enabled with GPRS communication, further growing the company’s market share in the region.
Dr. Ibrahim Sanad, CEO at EBE, said: “We have been deploying thousands of POS terminals from another vendor, and successfully so.

PAX Sales Director Mark O’Flynn added: “We are delighted that EBE has chosen PAX. This is another in a long line of experienced payment system integrators in the EMEA region who appreciate PAX’s credibility as a highly focused and reliable point of sale terminal supplier to partner with.”
