Abstract
Within the EMV payment specification, the use of an unattended terminal to accept a payment is allowed. Creating a device that has both the EMV level 1 (L1) and level 2 (L2) payment components combined with a virtual merchant creates a 'card present' transaction for an on-line or e-commerce merchant. This device can be called a personal Point of Sale (pPOS). This specification discloses personal Point of Sale (pPOS) devices and methods that can provide for card present e-commerce transactions. In some embodiments, a pPOS device can include only a secure microcontroller function (MCF), a payment kernel, a secure element, and an interface to an external system with an EMV level 3 (L3) payment application. In some embodiments, a pPOS device can further include a reader. In some embodiments, a pPOS device can still further include a sensor switch and/or a user interface function.
