[Asterisk-Users] Credit Card machines / interop

[Brandon Patterson (peering)]

MessageThese machines in many cases call a freephone number, 800 number in N. America but, around the world mostly numbers that are tollfree. You cannot change the machine so like the Borg you need to adapt!

  Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Credit Card machines / interop


  Hi all,

  One of the areas I am trying to research before I can confidently start deploying Asterisk is "Credit Card Machines". (PDQ / Streamline machines / any similar)

  I'm talking about the credit card swipe boxes at point of sale desks.  I believe they dial out to the specific bank provider everytime a card is swiped.

  My question is:

  - Does anyone have any experience using these type of devices with Asterisk, possibly with a SIPURA type SIP device.
  - If not, is my assumption that at the very worst I will just have to connect them to a FXS port on the * and that should let the device break out onto the ISDN E1 line?

  As always thanks for any insights / advice people can give.

  cheers

  alex

  Dear Friends of Ubiquity Software: 

  As you may have noticed, Ubiquity Software began using the web domain ubiquity.com earlier this year in addition to the previously established ubiquity.net for our website and email communications to you.  However, since that time, a dispute has emerged with respect to actual ownership of the ubiquity.com domain.



  As an international software company founded over decade ago, you can always reach Ubiquity Software under the website www.ubiquity.net <http://www.ubiquity.net/>  and via email at @ubiquity.net.  However, we have also chosen to expand our domain to the more specific www.ubiquitysoftware.com <http://www.ubiquitysoftware.com/>  for web and @ubiquitysoftware.com for email communications.

  Please use either the historical ubiquity.net or begin to use the new ubiquitysoftware.com domain for all email communications to Ubiquity employees from now on. 
    
  Thank you.

  Regards,

  Ubiquity Software
