Abstract: A handheld POS terminal is provided, which is wired to a secure base unit by a cable consisting of two pieces that are joined together by a plug-in connector. The plug-in connector has a pull-out force necessary to separate the connector that is greater than the weight of the POS terminal but less than the force necessary to damage the cable connections at the POS terminal or at the base unit. The cable may also include a coiled section, which acts as a spring, so that if the POS terminal is dropped, the coiled section brings the POS terminal gently to a stop before it hits the ground. If a customer drives away with the POS terminal still in the car, the cable will separate at the plug-in connector, preventing damage to the POS terminal.

Abstract: A versatile payment system connected to the payment network for the use with a POS application is disclosed. The payment system can be configured as a stand-alone payment system or a payment system integrated with the POS application. Versatility is achieved by (1) running the service manager in the background, allowing it to communicate with the POS application, (2) providing a setup menu allowing the user to configure its integration with the POS application, and (3) using a simple data-exchanging schema allowing the service manager and the POS application to exchange data such as authorization codes and amount of payment.

Abstract: A web browser-based payment system contains a processing server, a virtual terminal comprising a computer running a browse, a virtual terminal application, and at least one Point of Sale device connected to the computer, and network connection between the processing server and the virtual terminal. The virtual terminal thus is capable of retrieving from the server the virtual terminal application for processing payment. The virtual terminal invokes an embedded plug-in component, which allows the browser to interface with the POS devices. This payment system is capable of processing payments by using payment data from the attached Point of Sale device.

Abstract: A method of processing signature-required payment using a handheld device with a wireless access capability is disclosed.
