Overview

The all-new VP6825 by ID TECH is a state-of-the-art, 3-in-1, PCI PTS 5.x certified unattended payment device that can accept Magstripe, chip card (EMV), and/or NFC/contactless payments. The unit features a 4.3-inch high- luminosity color touchscreen display capable of supporting PIN-on- glass transactions and can also display video advertisements when it is not being used for menu displays or customer interactions.
The VP6825 accepts all of today’s most popular payment methods, including those based on digital wallet technology, including Apple Pay, Android Pay, and Samsung Pay, along with support for loyalty technologies such as Apple Pay VAS and Google Pay Smart Tap. The VP6825 is suitable for payment solutions involving:

• Transportation
• Vending
• Parking
• Quick Service Restaurants
• POS Kiosks

1.1. Integration Location
V/P6825 is the next generation vending payment peripheral in the popular ID TECH Vending line (including Vendi, VP6300, and VP6800) of unattended contactless payment hardware. This device is intended to be deployed on unattended kiosks, parking systems, and vending machines that support a variety of different payment methods, digital advertising, and guidance using visual payment prompts.

1.2. Integration Options
1D TECH provides a feature-rich Universal SDK to aid rapid development of external (non-device-resident) payment applications that talk to the VP6825. The Universal SDK is available for the C# language on Windows and comes with sample code for demo apps. To obtain the SDK and other useful utilities, demos, and downloads for the VP6825, be sure to check the Downloads link on the ID TECH Knowledge Base (no registration required).

1.3. Encryption
The VP6825 supports industry-standard Triple DES or AES encryption technology, with DUKPT- based key management (per ANSI X.9-24). Encryption can be configured to occur with a PIN variant key, or Data variant, as desired. ID TECH operates a certified Key Injection Facility, capable of injecting your unit(s) with any required keys. Remote Key Injection (RKI) is also available. Consult your ID TECH representative to learn about all available options involving key injection.
As a PCl-validated SRED device, the VP6825 conducts periodic self-checks and incorporates tamper detection features which, if triggered, cause automatic zeroization of sensitive data and keys.
