[img_assist|nid=7423|title=|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=100|height=100]VeriFone Holdings, Inc. released its Vx 700, an electronic payments module that delivers the power and security of the Verix V architecture to kiosks, vending machines, ticketing devices and other systems where cash has traditionally been the primary payment method.

The Vx 700 meets PCI PED and EMV security standards and integrates with VeriFone’s SCR710 secure card reader and an external contactless payments interface to provide a powerful and flexible solution for multiple electronic payments options. Built to fit into standard bill acceptor cutouts the device enables support for magnetic stripe, chip cards and contactless payments in traditional cash-only kiosks, ticketing and vending machines.

Having laser-engraved, petro-chemical resistant keys, vandal-resistant housing, an IP65 rating and capable of withstanding wide temperature variations, the Vx 700 is suitable to outdoor use, from petroleum retailers to parking lots.
