Implementation of the technological chain for EMV card production
MasterCard International presents MasterCard PayPass. This is a new “contactless” card solution that offers holders a simple and reliable payment method. MasterCard MasterCard PayPass the cardholder does not need to insert it into the terminal or pass it through a reader. To make a payment, you just need to bring your card to a special wireless terminal with PayPass. The product is convenient to use in places where the speed of service is especially important, but it is traditionally paid in cash: in restaurants, cinemas, and gas stations.
How MasterCard PayPass works
MasterCard MasterCard PayPass has a built-in chip and antenna. Pay PayPass-terminal, so that the necessary information is transmitted wirelessly. In this way, cardholders avoid having to hand the card over to the merchant or use the terminal. The customer’s account data is sent directly to a special reader and processed by the highly reliable MasterCard payment system. MasterCard MasterCard PayPass payment confirmation occurs within a few seconds.
The transfer of information from PayPass cards from Mastercard takes place on a radio frequency in accordance with the IS0#14443 standard. Chip-Chip, MasterCard, MasterCard contactless chip MasterCard (EMV / is07816).
In North America, most purchases are made online, so authorization usually uses information stored on the magnetic stripe (data on track 2, in certain cases — on track 1).
In regions with a wide distribution of smart em EMV purchases, Pay PayPass, MasterCard MasterCard M / Chip. The main difference is that you do not need to contact a terminal to transmit payment data, such as when you pass a card through a reader. Pay, Pay PayPass, MasterCard, MasterCard, MasterCard MasterCard M/Chip.

HYPERCOM
Hypercom Corporation was established in 1978 in Australia and has gone all the way from a small private company to a multinational Corporation with four head offices on different continents and a large number of regional offices in various countries of the world. Currently, the company’s head office is located in Phoenix (Arizona, USA). Hypercom will be 27 years old in 2005. the experience gained during this time allows the Corporation to lead the technological progress in the field of electronic payments, and technological developments and solutions make Hypercom a leader in ensuring the security of financial transactions, including the leaders in EMV technologies. This is confirmed by the award of the “VISA Chip Vendor of the Year 2003” title by Hypercom Corporation in the field of advanced development, as well as the award of the “Market Engineering Company of the Year 2002, Year 2003″title by the consulting company Frost & Sullivan two years in a row.
Hypercom’s manufacturing facilities are located in the United States and Hong Kong. The company also has a division of Hypercom Financial Terminals for the production of PIN keyboards in Sweden.
The history of Hypercom in Russia began in 1995 with the supply of equipment through one of the company’s distributors. The successful start of sales and the great potential of the Russian market led to the opening of a representative office of the Corporation in Moscow in 1996. At first, the representative office had only one person, currently the Moscow office of Hypercom (Zelenograd) employs more than 50 people. They include software developers for POS terminals, terminal network management systems, network controllers, as well as personnel who sell and support clients in the CIS and Baltic countries.
Today, Nuregsosh Corporation remains the only provider of a comprehensive solution for creating a payment infrastructure for plastic cards, providing guaranteed and managed delivery of EFT (electronic funds transfer) transactions from POS terminals and ATMs to the Bank’s processing center. The complete solution consists of POS terminals, IEN/NAC network controllers, Term-Master Suite terminal management software, and HyperView View controller management software.
POS terminals are Hypercom
The new generation of Hypercom terminals of the Optimum series is the first line of devices developed by the European division of Hypercom specifically for the European markets. Previously, there were many series of POS terminals offered around the world that combine all the specific requirements for such devices in various geographical markets. Thus, for a long time Hypercom supplied equipment with the same functionality for all countries and continents, often with excessive functionality for many markets.
The main products of the Optimum series are the Optimum T2100 and Optimum M2100 POS terminals with wireless connectivity. In addition to POS terminals, there are new PIN pads of the P1100 and Optimum P2100 series, which differ from each other in a set of technical options and scope of application. For example, the p1100 PIN pad is designed to accept chip cards and enter a PIN code. In turn, the Optimum P2100 is positioned by the company as the most effective module for upgrading cash registers for receiving EMV cards. This PIN pad is equipped with a 32-bit processor, has a built-in cryptoprocessor, a protected memory area, and magnetic and chip card readers. In addition, 12 MB of Optimum P2100 memory can be used for downloading additional software applications, including those required for working with multifunctional EMV cards. It should also be noted that both pinpads support the 3DES and RSA encryption algorithm.
Technical features of the Optimum series
It should be noted that the technical features of the new Optimum POS terminals differ significantly from other Hypercom device lines. In particular, in Optimum terminals, the company used not only a new generation of processors, but also a new memory architecture.
Thus, the technical core of the terminal is a 32-bit RISC processor based on the ARM 7 architecture, operating at a frequency of 66 MHz.
As standard, the new POS terminals have a memory area of 12 MB. This amount of memory is sufficient to use the device not only for receiving magnetic stripe cards and EMV cards, but also in the broader framework of additional systems such as loyalties, prepaid services, etc. All POS terminals in the Optimum series have 3 SIM slots and a built-in PIN pad. The devices are equipped with a built-in security module that supports the latest encryption standards (including support for 3DES and RSA), a reader for magnetic and chip cards, a 64×128-pixel graphic display with improved illumination, and a high-speed thermal printer — 16 lines/s.
The Optimum T2100 POS terminal uses a new thermal printer with SureLoad technology, thanks to which the receipt tape is loaded by placing it in a special tray without the need to refill it through the terminal’s printer. Traditionally, when developing new devices, Hypercom specialists pay special attention to their telecommunications capabilities. This approach remains relevant for devices of the Optimum series. In addition to the traditional analog modem with FastPOS technology and data transfer speeds of up to 56 KB/s (V. 90), the POS terminals of Optimum have added the possibility of GPRS/ GSM wireless communication and Bluetooth radio frequency technology (for the POS terminal of Optimum M2100). Wireless communication options, and above all Bluetooth, are intended for use primarily in restaurants and cafes: thanks to the mobility of the device, the customer does not have to let the card “out of sight”when calculating the card. In addition, the terminal is able to work in an Ethernet network over the TCP / IP Protocol.
This unique set of telecommunications capabilities provides users of the Optimum series with extensive opportunities to connect POS terminals at almost any point of sale using various data transfer channels.
The new Optimum line stands out from other Hypercom product lines in its appearance. In addition to their compact and ergonomic design, Optimum devices feature a simpler and more intuitive user interface. This was done specifically so that acquiring banks could minimize the necessary retraining of employees of trade and service enterprises to work with new POS terminals.
In the upper part of the terminal keyboard, there are “scroll” keys that are used to select additional options and move through the submenu screens. The rest of the keyboard is represented by traditional numeric keys and the “enter”, “clear” and “cancel”buttons.
In General, the keyboard and logic of working with Optimum terminals are in many ways similar to the already familiar mobile phones. At least in comparison with terminals with a large number of keys, the new devices favorably differ in the simplicity of the interface, which should undoubtedly please users.
All delivered equipment is certified for compliance with EMV Level 1, and software-EMV Level 2 and provides high reliability and security of financial transactions.
New technologies for wireless communication applications for Hypercom POS terminals
At the moment, wireless technologies are becoming more and more relevant when conducting transactions using plastic cards. Hypercom offers several varants for solving such problems. The Optimum n12100 terminal can be equipped with a built-in GSM/GPRS or Bluetooth module.
In order to ensure reliable operation over GPRS, the M2100 implements automatic redundancy over a switched (CSD — circuit switched data) GSM channel.
The first network configuration option that does not require special network equipment in the processing center.
When conducting a financial transaction, the terminal initially opens a GPRS session and establishes a TCP connection to the host’s SSL server. With a good connection, the transaction takes 10-15 seconds. If there is no connection via GPRS, the terminal establishes a dial-up channel at the specified phone number, connects to the operator’s Internet gateway, and establishes a TCP connection with the same SSL server. In this case, the transaction is completed in 30-40 seconds.
The cost and duration of CSD transactions can be reduced if you do not use the operator’s Internet gateway, but install GSM modems directly on the territory of the processing center

At some points, the percentage of GPRS failures is too high or the quality of the GSM signal is insufficient. In such cases, we recommend using the Hypercom Optimum M2100-Bluetooth terminal.
Smart Bluetooth base station
There are a number of retail and service companies that operate in areas with weak or absent GSM/GPRS signal levels. The optimal solution for such points is to use the Hypercom M2100 terminal, which communicates with the base station via Bluetooth. The base station contains an analog modem that connects to the telephone line. You can connect up to three mobile terminals to a single base station. The main distinctive feature of the Hypercom base station is the ability to simultaneously conduct transactions on all connected terminals without additional time costs.
Optimum 2100 Bluetooth
Intelligent base station
Let’s assume that a card was inserted at the first terminal, the amount and PIN code were entered. After processing the card, the terminal establishes a Bluetooth connection with the base station and requests a phone number. The base station starts dialing. At this point, a similar request is received from the second terminal and written to the queue. After connecting to the processing center, both terminals simultaneously send transactions, and the base station broadcasts them to a common channel. The host responds to both terminals in any order. Each host response will be sent to the terminal that the response is intended for. The modem connection will be terminated by the base station after the last terminal closes the Bluetooth connection.
The proposed solution not only reduces transaction time, but also reduces the load on the modem pool.
Hypercom NAC and IEN communication equipment
From the very beginning of its activity the company Hypercom engaged in the development and production of specialized communication controllers NAC(IEN). In contrast to conventional network controllers that are focused on working with large amounts of data, NAC/IEN are communication controllers that are specially designed to meet the requirements of building networks of POS terminals and ATMs. Compared to the widely used X. 25 PAD, which supports the X. 25 data network, NAC and IEN operate over protocols such as TCP/IP (Ethernet network), Frame Relay, ISDN, on the one hand, and terminal dial-up (dial-up), on the other. In particular, it is possible to implement support for the incoming digital telephone channel E1. The synchronous SDLC Protocol is used for transmitting transactions because SDLC provides the best way to achieve reliability and speed of delivery over telephone lines, while it carries address information that allows flexible message routing. SDLC also uses a reliable mechanism (CRC) to verify the truth of the information received, which is especially important in the case of noisy telephone lines.
Advantages of a comprehensive approach
Unlike its competitors, which in most cases supply their POS terminals in tandem with third-party telecommunications equipment, Hypercom Corporation is still the world’s only provider of integrated solutions for accepting cards in retail and service enterprises, including network controllers, POS terminals, and software for managing terminals and controllers of its own production.
Due to the use of proprietary network controllers, the data transfer speed between the terminal and the host increases significantly, i.e. the time for conducting a client transaction decreases. Thus, the quality of customer service of the Bank significantly increases, and the number of customers of a retail outlet or Bank branch per day increases.
An important role in the complex solution is played by the system for remote loading of software and parameters into terminals — TermMaster Suite. In addition to remote management of the terminal network, TermMaster Suite allows the Bank to create a database of terminals that stores the settings of each individual device. Using this database, Bank employees will be able to quickly check the device settings, draw conclusions about the network configuration as a whole, and plan their actions to make changes.
As a rule, update processes are started at night, so as not to interfere with the full day-to-day operation of stores. In this case, the Bank’s engineer can configure the TermMaster Suite so that the update process starts automatically without his participation and without the need for personal presence at the workplace. Thus, the employees of the trade and service enterprise-cashiers and operators-do not break away from performing their direct duties.
