South Africa's Peach Payments Introduces Enterprise Point-of-Sale Terminal
Cape Town-based Peach Payments, a leading South African payment gateway, has unveiled a groundbreaking new product - Digit Pro, a portable point of sale (POS) device designed for mid-size and enterprise customers [1][2]. Rahul Jain, CEO of Peach Payments, announced that Digit Pro is designed to meet merchants' demand for more payment flexibility, better business management, and streamlined operations [3].
Unlike traditional POS terminals in South Africa, which are often limited to card payments, Digit Pro processes and displays transactions from various payment methods, such as card payments and Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) options [1][2]. This innovative feature allows merchants to manage all payments in one place, regardless of payment type, on the Peach Payments dashboard [1].
Digit Pro's unique feature is its ability to facilitate multiple payment methods through a customisable checkout flow, integrating these transactions seamlessly on a single dashboard [1]. This integration, previously unavailable on POS devices in South Africa, marks a significant leap forward in payment solutions for merchants.
In addition to the new POS device, Peach Payments offers a comprehensive toolkit for businesses to manage and disburse payments through web and mobile [4]. This toolkit, combined with Digit Pro, provides merchants with a single solution for integrated and streamlined payment and business management options.
Peach Payments, which has experienced significant growth, having raised US$31 million in funding, is also making strategic acquisitions to expand its services [5]. The launch of Digit Pro is part of this growth strategy, aimed at providing merchants with a more integrated and efficient solution for their payment needs.
In summary, Digit Pro offers several unique features that set it apart from other POS terminals in South Africa:
- Support for Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) payments on the device - Full integration with the online Peach Payments dashboard, showing all transactions regardless of payment method - A customisable checkout flow supporting multiple payment options, beyond just card payments
These features provide merchants with greater payment flexibility and better business management through streamlined operations and integrated payment tracking. The launch of Digit Pro is set to revolutionise the South African payment landscape, offering a more efficient and integrated solution for merchants seeking to manage their payments and businesses more effectively.
