Symbol PD8500 Payment Systems

Increase revenue and profits by cost-effectively managing transactions
Symbol’s PD8500 payment system helps you better manage the transactions driving your business ― including retail payments, customer loyalty programs and employee interactions such as clock-in/clock-out. You get more from your investment with the flexibility to create transaction screens to fit your specific applications and a variety of input options, including a pressure-sensitive, color touch screen; signature capture; and magnetic stripe reader.

The Symbol PD8500 guides your customers through transaction menus you create, lowers your costs by reducing bank processing fees and supports applications that deliver targeted promotion and branding efforts to increase sales. And, fast transaction processing enhances both customer satisfaction and employee productivity.

Build Customer Loyalty with Every Transaction
The Symbol PD8500 interactive color payment device from Symbol Technologies provides advanced capabilities that include debit, credit and electronic benefit transfer (EBT) transactions. To comply with Visa® PED requirements, the Symbol PD8500 supports secure personal identification number (PIN) debit transactions and also features signature capture and line item display.

The Symbol PD8500 offers a standards-based operating system and a bundled payment application for ease of deployment and maintenance. Its color display and pressure-sensitive touch-screen engage users with intuitive messages, prompts and attractive promotions to reinforce brand messages at the point of sale.

Versatile Features for Easy Integration
Using the industry standard Microsoft® Windows® CE.NET architecture and Symbol posDesigner visual development software, customized application development on the PD8500 is fast and easy. A software developers' kit (SDK) is also available for integrating the Symbol PD8500 into major point-of-sale and point-of-service systems.

Once deployed, advanced features such as palm rejection and triple DES (TDES) make the Symbol PD8500 more reliable and secure. Palm rejection technology distinguishes between the pen and the hand for higher quality electronic signature capture. The Symbol PD8500 also supports TDES PIN encryption - a higher level of security for your debit payment applications and a key component of Visa PED compliance. Its standards-based architecture and rich feature set make the Symbol PD8500 one of the most powerful and flexible transaction payment terminals available today.

Symbol PD8500 Business Challenges and Solutions

You need to reduce point-of-sale transaction costs.
The Symbol PD8500 has the ability to convert many expensive credit card, offline debit card and check transactions to online debit.

It’s vital you reduce operating costs.
With the Symbol PD8500’s signature capture capability, you eliminate the cost of storing, retrieving and managing the paper files needed to resolve issues such as transaction repudiation. You also reduce customer disputes and chargebacks by being able to easily retrieve receipts.

You need a durable, reliable transaction system capable of enduring hundreds of thousands of transactions.
Built for heavy use, the Symbol PD8500 helps you minimize downtime and reduce maintenance costs, and its passive stylus is inexpensive to replace if lost or damaged.

If you aren’t able to give customers tailored transaction experiences, you risk losing their business to competitors who do.
With the posDesigner software suite, your application developers are able to quickly build payment screens tailored to your business.

You need a better way to accurately capture hours worked by each employee.
Your employees can use the Symbol PD8500 to clock in and out quickly and easily, giving you up-to-date information about hours worked through integration with human resources systems. And, signature verification prevents employees from clocking in or out for each other.
