What is POS VELOCITY?
POS VELOCITY is a payments company based in Toronto. We make three products for Canadian businesses. Payments takes card payments in store, online, and in the field on PAX terminals. EFT moves money between Canadian bank accounts on a schedule. Payouts pays drivers, operators, and staff what they earned, with the whole run paid out by EFT.
Which payment terminals does POS VELOCITY use?
Payments runs on PAX A-series terminals. They take chip, tap, and QR payments, and cash is recorded on the same ticket. The same device can send a secure payment link by text, email, or QR code when the customer isn't there in person.
Can I take a card payment when the customer isn't in front of me?
Yes. Enter the amount on the terminal and send a secure payment link by text, email, or QR code. The customer pays on their own phone, and their own bank authenticates them with 3-D Secure. The result comes back to the same transaction record as an in-person sale.
Will your terminal work with the POS software I already use?
Yes, in three ways. In SEMI/ECR mode your software drives our terminal through a cloud REST command plane, authenticated with your own API key. You can also build directly on our documented REST APIs, which have published OpenAPI references. If you run Logivision L-POS, our plug-in starts the payment on the terminal from the tender button.
How do driver and operator payouts work?
You set company and earner splits across debit, credit, prepaid, voucher, and cash, with tips and surcharges handled separately. Dues sheets track each pay period through draft, preview, and activate. Then the whole payout run goes out by EFT, straight into each earner's bank account.
Is POS VELOCITY built for Canadian businesses?
Yes. We serve Canada. Tax handling covers HST, GST, and PST with effective-date rules, transfers move between Canadian bank accounts, and the team that builds the products is the team that answers the phone in Toronto.
Are there hidden fees?
No. The rate you're quoted is the rate you pay. If a fee applies, you see it before it happens, not as a surprise line at the end of the month.
How much volume runs through POS VELOCITY?
On average, across our active merchants, more than 5,000 transactions a day, more than $10 million in merchant volume processed every month, and more than 700 terminals active every day.
