Universal Card Machine Stands

Need a stand that fits your card machine, whatever the brand? Our universal card machine stands use an adjustable backplate that fits Ingenico, Verifone, PAX, Castles, Spire, Hypercom, Spectra and Gemalto terminals, among others. If your provider changes your terminal, the stand stays.

Each stand swivels and tilts, routes the cables inside and includes pre-drilled holes plus an adhesive pad for installation without drilling. Choose a 14 or 20 cm countertop pole, or a wall-mounted version.

One card machine holder for any terminal

Model-specific stands are made for a single terminal. A universal stand adapts to the shape of your device, which makes it the practical choice in several situations:

  • You don't know which terminal you'll receive: set up the till now and fit the card machine when it arrives.
  • Your tills run different brands: one stand model for every checkout, whatever each terminal is.
  • Your provider changes terminals regularly: adjust the backplate to the new device instead of buying a new stand.
  • Your model has no dedicated stand: older or less common terminals fit the universal backplate too.

Universal card reader stands: models available

The countertop versions are available with a 14 or 20 cm pole. The lower one keeps the terminal close to the counter; the higher one raises it above displays or till equipment.

Built to protect your card machine

A PIN entry device that is moved around, dropped or pulled by its cable wears out sooner and can trigger false tamper alerts. A fixed card terminal stand reduces all of that.

  • Swivel and tilt: turn the terminal towards the customer for payment and back to staff afterwards.
  • Latch mechanism: holds the card machine securely on the backplate.
  • Internal cabling: cables run inside the pole, away from pulls and snags.
  • Easy installation: pre-drilled holes for screw fixing, plus an adhesive pad supplied for counters you prefer not to drill.

Universal or model-specific stand?

If you know your terminal and don't expect to change it, a dedicated stand gives an exact fit. See our Ingenico terminal stands, Verifone payment terminal stands, PAX payment terminal stands, Castles payment terminal stands, Spire and Sunmi pin pad stands and Miura pinpad stands. If you already have a pole and only need to adapt it to a new terminal, a payment terminal backplate is enough.

More ways to mount your card machine

For wall installations with a holder made for your model, see our payment terminal and pin pad wall mounts. If the terminal shares space with a screen, a monitor and card reader stand puts both on a single pole. For payments away from the counter, a pinpad and PDA holster keeps the device at hand.
