Wouldn’t it be great if a chip-card transaction took, say, 2.0 seconds instead of 20 seconds? We thought so too. Which is why ID TECH is proud to introduce the patent-pending Augusta with Quick Chip (see photo), the fastest contact-EMV card reader money will buy. Just insert your chip card, remove it two seconds later, and put your card away while a receipt prints out. It’s that fast. (Come see it in person at the National Retail Federation show, Booth 4521, at the Javits Center, Jan. 15, 16, and 17.) Augusta is blazing fast, but this isn’t just about speed.
