Systems, methods, and devices for Bluetooth numeric comparison pairing between a handheld payment terminal and a base station that is incapable of displaying digits of a base station Bluetooth pairing code are disclosed. A handheld payment terminal computer program may initiate Bluetooth numeric pairing with a base station; generate a handheld payment terminal Bluetooth pairing code; capture a coded light sequence emitted by LEDs on the base station; decode the coded light sequence to determine the base station Bluetooth pairing code; cause the base station Bluetooth pairing code and the handheld payment terminal Bluetooth pairing code to be displayed on a display; and in response to Bluetooth pairing code match, pairing the handheld payment terminal with the base station. The base station provides access to one or more networks and/or data communication to the handheld payment terminal when paired.
