In-Person Payment Hardware, Connected to Processing and Reporting
Cliq helps businesses deploy countertop terminals, mobile devices, PIN pads, and self-service hardware — connecting devices, payment processing, and transaction reporting through one platform.
How It Works
How Hardware Deployment Works
Deployment steps and timelines vary by device, integration, location count, configuration, and third-party dependencies.
- AssessIdentify checkout locations, payment methods, software requirements, transaction types, connectivity, and customer-interaction needs
- SelectChoose supported hardware based on your processor, software environment, integration requirements, and workflow
- DeployInstall the equipment, confirm connectivity, and test supported transaction workflows before broader use
- MaintainUse available support, reporting, updates, and device-management services to keep the environment running
Security and Payment-Data Protection
Secure Devices, Clear Responsibilities
Security responsibilities depend on the device, software, processor, merchant environment, and implementation. Depending on configuration, supported devices may include:
- EMV capabilities for chip-card transactions, and encryption to help protect payment information in transit
- Tokenization that replaces sensitive credentials with tokens for supported storage and recurring workflows
- Device management for configuration, software, security, and firmware updates
- Using a certified device does not automatically make a merchant’s full environment PCI DSS compliant

The Essentials
Frequently Asked
What types of payment hardware does Cliq offer?
Depending on availability and compatibility, Cliq may support countertop terminals, mobile payment devices, PIN pads, multilane terminals, integrated POS equipment, and self-service hardware.
Can the hardware connect with my existing POS system?
It may. Compatibility depends on the POS software, device model, processor, gateway, integration method, and certification, and should be confirmed before deployment. Supported activity connects to broader reporting — see the Pay by Cliq™ Dashboard.
Are the terminals PCI compliant?
Supported terminals may be certified for applicable payment-security standards, but using a certified device does not automatically make the merchant’s full environment PCI DSS compliant. Merchant responsibilities vary by implementation.
Does Cliq support Apple Pay and Google Pay?
Compatible contactless terminals may accept supported mobile wallets, including Apple Pay and Google Pay, when enabled through the processor, device, and merchant configuration. Tip workflows may also be available — see Tips by Cliq®.
