The MagIC 6000 is an integrated, all-in-one unit incorporating a long swipe reader for magnetic stripe cards, and an ISO7816-compatible chip reader ready for EMV. The terminal comes with standard 1 MB of memory, which can easily be upgraded. It interfaces easily with a wide range of peripherals, including check readers and electronic cash registers.

"Schlumberger has been involved developing card technology for many of the world's leading financial organizations and has an in-depth understanding of retail market needs, " stated Jonathan Adams, director, Financial Market Segment, Schlumberger Test & Transactions, North America. "Drawing on this experience, Schlumberger has designed the MagIC 6000 terminal with key specifications that help our customers meet business objectives. " Adams noted that strong relationships with merchant service providers and transaction processors, along with merchant focus groups, provide the company with a unique perspective into current and future requirements for electronic payment terminals.

MagIC 6000 Terminal Paves the Way for Value-Added Applications

The introduction of new features accompanying smart card-based payment technology -- loyalty programs, event management applications, campus solutions and private e-purse programs -- is simplified by the MagIC 6000 terminal's Application Manager software. Customers simply load new applications software into the terminal, where they securely reside alongside existing applications. Application `fire-walling' provides a cost-effective platform to securely implement unique products and services, providing major costs savings by minimizing the need to re-certify each and every application module.

Schlumberger has an expanding network of value-added resellers and associate companies developing specific applications for its POS terminals. A common software development platform supports the entire MagIC family of POS solutions, enabling new applications developed for one MagIC terminal to be used on any terminal in the MagIC family.
