Supplemental Information

New Features

POS-40191

Verifone E285 Bluetooth

Added support for Bluetooth communication for the Verifone E285 Payment Terminal using Verifone Point Flex API.

  • The Bluetooth pairing name for the Verifone Payment Terminal is: "Verifone [model] [Serial Number]", where the [Serial Number] is the nine (9) digit device serial number.

    For example, a Bluetooth pairing name could be “Verifone e285 123-456-789”.

  • When pairing, Xenial filters the available Bluetooth devices to only display those devices where the Bluetooth pairing name begins with "Verifone e285 NNN...etc." The device serial number is displayed for all available pairing options.

    The Xenial iPad only pairs with one Verifone terminal at a time.

  • If the Xenial iPad is not paired with a Verifone payment terminal when the user performs a transaction, the user is able to immediately pair with an eligible payment terminal.

  • To ease the burden of swapping out payment terminals, the user selects Connect Verifone Reader from the Xenial interface to unpair from the currently paired Verifone terminal and pair with another terminal.

  • The Bluetooth pairing process is OS-agnostic (Android or iOS).
