Checkout Flex POS Payment Module

Select the right pay terminals for your in-store transactions

With the Checkout Flex POS Payment Module, you can process card payments securely at the point of sale in your store. You decide for yourself which payment methods you want to accept, allowing you to benefit from attractive prices. You can find the right PAX card terminals for cashless payments in our online shop.

POS Payment Module: secure in-store payments – without cash

  • Cash in payments with ease thanks to high card acceptance

  • Online onboarding and contract requests to the acceptance partners

  • Single back office tool for managing in-store sales

  • Digital end-of-day settlements and sales receipts available online

POS Payment made easy

The POS Payment Module offers you a wide-ranging choice of payment methods for in-store sales in the Checkout Flex back office tool. You can simply integrate the providers you require and negotiate the prices independently with the acceptance partners. You can start the applications directly and online from the back office tool. In addition to the attractive price conditions, you benefit from many useful functions. For example, you can view sales receipts or your end-of-day settlements for payment processing online. The overview of all transactions keeps you up to date at all times. 

  • Requirements for successful integration of the POS module

    For us to offer you our point-of-sale module, the following requirements must be met:

    • At least one compatible PAX card terminal from our terminal shop is required to operate the associated software
    • You must have at least one acceptance agreement for a payment method in place
    • A Checkout Flex account is also required to operate the pay terminal
    • To enable billing of the monthly fees for the SIM card for the pay terminal and the POS Payment Module transaction costs by Checkout Flex, you must add a PostFinance business account or a valid credit card
  • Order pay terminals for the POS Payment Module and set them up yourself

    Order the PAX card terminal that is right for you in our shop. After receiving the device, you can simply scan the QR code on the enclosed flyer and configure your pay terminal in a few steps with the help of the set-up wizard. 

    Send requests to acceptance partners directly from the back office tool

    You can conclude the contract with PostFinance for the Checkout Flex POS Payment Module online in just a few minutes. After successful verification, we will activate Checkout Flex within five working days. To enable you to accept payments, you must then conclude a separate contract with each of the acceptance partners for the individual payment methods. PostFinance will take care of the arrangements for contract requests. You can initiate the contract request to the acceptance partners you require directly in the back office tool.

    Please note: It may currently take several weeks to conclude contracts with Worldline and Concardis. The time required to activate the payment method depends on the acceptance partner concerned. PostFinance has no influence on this process.
