The investments exceeded €1m – and the number of updated stand-alone and integrated POS-terminals was more than 4 thousand units.

“We started our entire Lithuania-served terminal network already in 2016. It was a multi-stage project, which we completed in late 2017. The work was necessary as of this January 1 the term of former PCI PTS 1.0 POS terminal certificate expired; so, we offered our clients the devices that correspond to a higher PCI PTS 3.0 security standard,” says Žoržas Šarafanovičius, ASHBURN International Executive Director.

According to Šarafanovičius, the new terminals also use their developed TransLink.iQ network management platform, which allows real-time POS terminal network monitoring and management, prompt and secure card payments transactions, as well as settings and software updates.

The company currently negotiates with business partners to connect another 250 thousand terminals to the TransLink.iQ platform.
