An electronic transaction device including a chip card reader and a shut-off mechanism for shutting off a slot for the introduction of a chip card as far as the card reader, the slot being formed by two lateral guide rails for guiding the card, the mechanism including a first shut-off flap and a second shut-off flap for shutting off the slot, the shut-off flaps being able to adopt a closed position preventing a non-compliant object from being introduced into the slot as far as the card reader, and an open position allowing the chip card to be introduced into the slot as far as the card reader, the shut-off flaps each including an actuating element which is situated respectively in the vicinity of one of the two lateral guide rails.

A terminal casing includes an one upper cover and one lower cover making a housing that can be closed by a removable hatch having a curvilinear profile. The hatch includes grooves distributed longitudinally on two parallel faces following the curvilinear profile. The lower cover includes tabs distributed longitudinally on two parallel faces in following the curvilinear profile, each tab cooperating with an associated groove. The tabs and the grooves are shaped to enable: through a translational motion followed by a rotational motion of the hatch, an insertion and a guidance of the tabs in the grooves of the hatch, when the hatch is inserted into the lower cover; and through a rotational motion followed by a translational motion of the hatch, a guidance of the tabs in the grooves of the hatch and a withdrawal of the tabs from the grooves when the hatch is withdrawn from the cove.

A power supply base for a payment terminal is provided with a housing having an opening for receiving a memory card. The power supply base includes a guide for guiding the payment terminal towards a position wherein it can receive the power supply, the guide including at least one guiding part shaped in such a way as to enable the insertion thereof into the opening of the payment terminal.
