application. Please follow the instructions in your POS app to connect and register. Each
version of the POS app does this differently.

there."

1.4. HOW IT WORKS
This section shall demonstrate a short version of how the Handpoint solution technically works,
whether you are using a linked mobile Point of Sale (mPOS) application or an alternative Point
of Sale (POS) software application.
1. The mPOS/POS app downloaded on your device initiates a transaction on the HiLite
card reader using Bluetooth
2. Customer inserts card and follows the directions on the HiLite card reader screen
3. The HiLite card reader sends the transaction information encrypted via Bluetooth to the
POS app
4. The POS app forwards the encrypted transaction information to the Handpoint
gateway via an internet connection which processes the transaction using your acquirer
5. The Handpoint gateway receives a response from the acquirer and forwards the
encrypted response to its internet connection
6. The POS app forwards the encrypted response to the HiLite card reader via Bluetooth
7. The HiLite card reader reads the response, finalises the transaction and sends a receipt
to the POS app
8. Customer removes card and the merchant provides the customer the receipt through
the POS app
