HybridPay Terminal (HPT25)

One Terminal for the Most Common Cashless Payment Methods

The KUARIO HybridPay Terminal (HPT25) accepts the most common cashless payment methods, both open- and closed-loop, on a single device. Operators can support Visa and Mastercard, mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, QR codes, and supported closed-loop payment methods such as campus cards and staff IDs, without adding multiple terminals.

 

Customers pay using their preferred method. Pricing and privileges are applied automatically by the KUARIO platform at the moment of payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add contactless payments to an existing vending machine?

Yes. The KUARIO HybridPay Terminal (HPT25) can be retrofitted to existing MDB-compatible vending machines, so you can add contactless payments without replacing the machine. It fits the standard EVA Mini format and draws power directly from the machine.

Which payment methods does the HPT25 accept?

The KUARIO HybridPay Terminal (HPT25) accepts the most common cashless payment methods, including Visa and Mastercard, mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, QR-code payments, and supported campus cards and staff IDs. These open-loop and closed-loop payment methods work on a single terminal.

Can customers use bank cards and campus or staff cards on the same terminal?

Yes. Visitors can pay with a bank card or mobile wallet, while students and employees can use supported campus cards or staff IDs on the same HPT25. You do not need separate terminals for bank-card and campus or staff-card payments.

Can students, staff and visitors pay different prices at the same machine?

Yes. You can configure different prices and privileges for user groups in the KUARIO Management Dashboard. When a user is identified through a supported campus card or staff ID, the platform automatically applies their configured price or privilege at payment. This lets you offer benefits such as discounted student prices or complimentary staff coffee while charging visitors the standard price.

Does the HPT25 need Wi-Fi, or can it use 4G?

The HPT25 can use integrated 4G, so Wi-Fi is not required. It also supports Wi-Fi and wired LAN connections, allowing you to choose a connection that suits the installation. The terminal connects to the KUARIO platform for payment processing, centrally managed pricing and reporting.
