Abstract
A docking station for an electronic payment terminal includes a docking surface having a guide for guiding the terminal towards a connection position with the docking station. The docking station further includes a first locking element cooperating with a second complementary locking element of the terminal. The first locking element is mobile between: a deployed position in which the first locking element protrudes relative to the docking surface and cooperates with the second locking element, and a retracted position in which the first locking element does not cooperate with the second locking element. The guide includes a front wall extending from a front edge of the docking surface and facing a front face of the terminal. The front wall bears at least one positioning hook cooperating with a recess made on the front face of the terminal so as to prevent lifting of the terminal in the connection position.
