This article is relevant to Spektrix users in the US who accept payment by credit or debit card.
When taking card payments in the box office, you will need one or more PIN Pads (also known as Chip Readers, Chip & PIN machines or PEDs/peds). Spektrix uses the Ingenico Lane 3000 integrated PIN Pad.
Users in the UK and Ireland should refer to Ordering a PIN Pad (UK and Ireland). Canadian clients do not currently use integrated Chip Readers/PIN Pads with Spektrix.
The Ingenico Lane 3000 Chip Reader
Spektrix can connect to the Ingenico Lane 3000 Chip reader in order to take secure payments. The Ingenico Lane 3000 is PCI compliant.
TIP: The Ingenico Lane 3000 is only available for US Clients who use Worldpay as their Payment Gateway. If you would like to discuss adding or switching to Worldpay to begin using the Ingenico Lane 3000, please contact Support.
By integrating with WorldPay, Spektrix is able to directly process any payments taken through the Ingenico Lane 3000, and send them directly to your Merchant bank account. You can read more technical specifics about the Ingenico Lane 3000 in the Ingenico Data Sheet.
Ordering the Ingenico Lane 3000
You can order the Ingenico Lane 3000 from two different vendors. However, which vendor you use will depend on how your organization uses WorldPay. You must order from the correct vendor so that your Chip Reader integrates correctly with Spektrix:
