Zebra ET4X 8 inch Expansion Back for Zebra PD20 Card Reader

Zebra PD20 Secure Card Reader for Mobile Payments

Enable mobile payment with virtually any card on Zebra mobile devices

The digital payment revolution is here — mobile wallet and card-based payments are predicted to account for nearly 80 percent of all in-person transactions, while cash-based payments continue to decrease every year. With so many payment options, merchants need to stay nimble to process any card, anywhere — from store aisles to curbside pickup and pop-up shops. And with the PD20 you can — right on Zebra mobile devices.

The PD20 is an add-on module that turns Zebra compatible handheld mobile computers and tablets into mobile POS (mPOS) stations. You can purchase new devices with the PD20 solution or add the PD20 solution to your existing compatible devices. Now, retailers can enable payment for purchases anywhere in the store. Transit operations can enable validation and purchase of tickets on subways, light rails or buses. Hotels can complete check-in and check-out for guests when they walk in the door. Delivery drivers can take payment right at the customer’s site. And more.

Turning Zebra mobile devices into a mobile POS is as simple as replacing the battery door with the PD20 combination Secure Card Reader and Secure Card Reader battery. And thanks to tight integration, the Zebra host device delivers power and data communications via the Zebra device USB port, providing a complete, seamless and ergonomic one-hand payment solution.

The result? Increased sales — with less POS infrastructure. Improved workforce productivity through more streamlined workflows. A better customer experience and increased customer loyalty through highly convenient and frictionless purchase paths. And a superior return on investment for your Zebra mobile devices.

Supports all card modalities — tap, swipe and insert

The PD20 has it all — NFC plus a Smart Card reader and Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR), allowing customers to tap-to-pay with their digital wallets or NFC-enabled cards; insert a chip-enabled card or swipe MSR-based cards.

Certified for all major card brands

The PD20 is EMV Level 2 certified for contact and contactless payments for Visa®, Mastercard®, American Express®, Discover® and UnionPay® and Interac, allowing you to accept practically every type of credit card.

Fully integrated for trouble-free operation

The PD20 Secure Card Reader and Secure Card Reader battery form a single sled that replaces the existing battery on compatible Zebra devices. The host device’s USB port provides seamless power and data communications.

Designed for comfort

The PD20 is designed to maintain the ergonomics of the Zebra device, which remains well-balanced in the hand, providing workers with all day comfort.

Utilize existing charging cradles and rugged boots

If you already own compatible Zebra devices, there’s no need to buy new accessories. The existing charge cradles you already own will accommodate the Zebra devices with the PD20 attached. And the rugged boots will fit as well, allowing you to increase device ruggedness for outdoor and other demanding environments.

Full-shift power

The powerful Secure Card Reader battery that drives the PD20 and the Zebra host mobile device provides 10+ hours of power — plenty for the longest shift. And the included Power Management application programming interface (API) gives you the flexibility to easily control power usage and configurations to ensure that the battery delivers full-shift power.

PCI certified, right out of the box

The PD20 is PCI PTS 6.x certified — you just need to certify your payment application with your acquirer, simplifying deployment.

Development tools included

With the included PD20 Software Development Kit (SDK), you can use an existing payment application or create a new application for a new POS solution — the choice is yours.

Improve the in-store shopper experience — and loyalty to your brand

The ability to take payment for purchases anywhere eliminates long wait times at the checkout, improving the customer experience and the likelihood that customers will return to your store — 93 percent of shoppers say convenience is why they choose to shop at a specific store.

Prevent lost sales

97 percent of shoppers have backed out of purchases due to lack of convenience. But when you turn your Zebra devices into a mobile Point of Sale (mPOS), customers can pay for their purchases right at the moment the buying decision is made, wherever they are in the store. If an item is out of stock, instead of losing the sale, associates can order the item on the spot for delivery to the customer’s home, providing in-aisle omnichannel fulfillment. The result? Increased sales — and profitability.

Increase cross-selling through improved customer engagement and clienteling

91 percent of shoppers are more likely to shop with brands that recognize, remember and provide them with relevant offers and recommendations. When the same device that can ring up purchases can also put all available customer information at the fingertips of your associates, the result is the highly personalized service that boosts sales and customer loyalty.

Double device functionality — and value

Now one device performs two functions. The same mobile device that enables workers to improve productivity and customer service is also a Point of Sale, providing more value and increasing the return on your Zebra mobile device investment.
