According to the company, features include:

• compliant with the latest industry standards (PCI PTS 3.1 with SRED, EMV Level 1 and 2, Visa-ready);
• connects with smartphones, tablets and feature phones via Bluetooth or audio jack;
• backlit display, EMV PIN pad, magnetic stripe reader, smart card reader and NFC reader;
