Small Device, Big Mobility
The PAX D195 is a handheld MiniPOS designed for businesses that need portable checkout without committing to a full-size SmartPOS. It pairs a 2.4″ color display with a familiar physical keypad and supports NFC contactless, EMV chip & PIN, and magnetic stripe transactions.
It’s best for quick transactions in tight spaces, counter hopping, curbside, tableside, delivery, transportation, and pop-ups.
Why Merchants Choose the PAX D195
- Great for Fast Handoffs The D195 keeps interaction simple with 15 physical keys (0-9, F1, F2, Enter, Clear, Cancel). For teams that prefer tactile input over touchscreens, this can reduce the learning curve and maintain consistent checkout across shifts.
- “Right-Size” Connectivity for Mobile Selling The D195 can be configured to match your business's payment acceptance, with dual-band Wi-Fi for reliable in-store mobility, optional 4G Cat-1 connectivity for payments on the go, and optional Bluetooth 5.0 support for specific deployment needs.
- Security Built for Today’s Requirements The D195 is listed with PCI PTS 6.x SRED and supports EMV L1 & L2, as well as major contactless programs such as Mastercard Contactless and Visa payWave.
- Lightweight Hardware That’s Easy to Deploy in Numbers At about 185g and 129 × 71 × 17mm, it’s easy for staff to hand to customers or keep at the ready for line-busting and roaming checkout.
- Visual Capture – Built-In Need basic visual capture (for certain QR-based or ID/record workflows, depending on your payment app)? The D195 supports an optional 0.3MP camera, and an optional touch screen is also listed for some configurations.
