A second merchant acquirer in Brazil and a payment processor in Ecuador will install a combined 26,500 Hypercom Corp. point of sale terminals by the end of the year.
The Brazilian acquirer, which Hypercom declined to name, is buying 22,000 Optimum T4205 countertop devices. Hypercom, of Scottsdale, Ariz., would not disclose financial terms of the deal. This order closely follows one that Cielo SA, an acquirer in Brazil, placed for 30,000 terminals in September.
Datafast CIA Ltda., a payments processor in Ecuador, is buying a mix of Optimum T4200 countertop and M4200 mobile POS terminals for a total of 4,500 devices. Hypercom says it is replacing Datafast's previous vendor, which it declined to name.
Datafast's website lists VeriFone Systems Inc. of San Jose, Calif., Spectra Technologies of Hong Kong and Hypercom as providers of terminals for its merchants.
MST Multisoft SA, a Hypercom distributor in Colombia, is handling the merchant installations for Datafast.
