Gateway Hardware Overview

  • Updated:

CivicPlus requires chip readers (EMV) and magnetic stripe readers to be purchased directly from the payment gateway provider. CivicPlus team members will provide customers with configuration settings necessary for their payment terminal, as well as IP (internet protocol) and port information for their firewall, and can assist with troubleshooting API (application program interface) connectivity. However, CivicPlus Support does not troubleshoot terminal errors from your payment terminal. Those errors should be reported to your IT (information technology) department, payment gateway provider, or hardware manufacturer.

 

Important Note

All integrated payment gateways do not allow for the use of unencrypted plain swipers.

CivicPlus does not formally endorse or require the purchase or use of a specific device; however, many CivicPlus customers find success using the devices mentioned in this article, dependent on the gateway.
