Voyager integration methods

In-person payment acceptance has expanded beyond the central checkout as consumers adopt ways to pay in aisles, tableside, curbside, at kiosks and on the road. The goal for businesses—and their software developers—is to present a seamless, intuitive and consistent experience wherever payments occur.

A versatile payment application like Voyager from Equinox allows merchants of all sizes and types to replace separate, purpose-built solutions for fixed, mobile and unattended payments with one turnkey application that works across Luxe? devices, integration methods and use cases. This speeds time to market and simplifies configuration, training and support.

Voyager integration methods

Payment acceptance needs vary based on size, industry, point-of-sale system capabilities and more. Voyager supports the smallest mom-and-pop operators and scales to meet the diverse needs of multi-location businesses and franchises. You decide the ideal integration method for your clients:

• Semi-integrated — Smart semi-integrated routing, combined with secure point-to-point encryption, ensures that sensitive card data bypasses the POS system, which significantly reduces the costs and complexities of PCI compliance. Voyager routes transactions directly from the Luxe 8500i or Luxe 6200m to the host for authorization and returns masked card data and a token (if received from the host) to the POS system.
• Stand-alone —The Voyager app handles everything from capturing and encrypting card details, to routing transactions and printing receipts and reports. Since no cardholder data is stored on the device, and no data is passed to other systems, a simple self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) is typically all that is needed to validate PCI compliance.
• Unattended — The Voyager app works with a variety of unattended EMV Kernel configurations, making it easy for a kiosk provider to integrate swipe, contact and contactless payments. Businesses and developers benefit from pre-certified host certifications for in-person and unattended environments running the same Voyager base application.
