The MEI Series 2000 Combo Acceptor is designed for kiosks, self-checkouts, and other retail self-service applications where space is at a premium. The 3" x 3" customer interface is the same size as the Series 2000 bill acceptor interface, enabling retailers to retrofit it into applications that utilize a Series 2000. Retailers get a robust, reliable system that combines the industry's best-selling bill acceptor with a debris-resistant, swipe-style reader. The unit fits into existing mountings that utilize an MEI Series 2000 bill acceptor, for fast and easy retrofit. The unit is ideal for virtually any indoor or outdoor location. And a modular communications network integrates easily with existing payment systems and inventory management systems via a USB or RS2332 interface. MEI's advanced protocol interface (API) makes it easy to integrate the Combo Acceptor into your self-service system. Give your customers more payment choices to earn more sales revenue. Now you can capture all transactions from both your credit and cash customers – it's the easiest way to increase kiosk profits. The MEI Series 2000 Combo Acceptor features a Series 2000 bill acceptor and a debris-resistant, swipe-style credit card reader. Credit card transactions are integrated through the kiosk for delivery to the vendor's backend system. MEI's Series 2000 bill acceptors use advanced optical scanning technology to identify and validate legitimate bills in virtually any condition. They exceed industry standards for the acceptance of wet, damaged, and crinkled bills; accept coupons; and meet the MEI Gold Standard for water resistance with full fluid protection and jam resistance, preventing shorted boards.
