About payment services, POS terminals, payment systems and other topics
POS terminal, mobile card reader or SoftPOS? If you accept cards in person, these are the three device types to choose from. We look at what each can do, what it costs, how convenient it is and who it's for.
One device, several independent businesses — for example several hairdressers in one salon. What a multi-merchant POS terminal is, how it works in practice, what to watch for, what it costs, and which Hungarian providers offer it.
According to a Global Payments forecast, Middle East tensions could bring up to 225,000 more tourists to Hungary in 2026, spending nearly EUR 79 million. We look at why demand for cashless payments is rising and what hospitality and accommodation businesses should do to capture the foreign traffic.
Hungary saw its first live, authenticated AI-agent payment in May through OTP Bank and Mastercard, followed by a SimplePay and FinTechZone webinar on agentic payments.

A fizetési szolgáltatók ajánlatai kívülről sokszor átláthatatlanok. Megmutatjuk, hogyan dolgozik a POSnavigator a háttérben azért, hogy egy kereskedő ne marketingígéretek, hanem valós üzleti szempontok alapján válasszon POS terminált vagy online fizetési megoldást.
Az MCC kód nem csak egy adminisztratív kategória: hatással lehet a bankkártya-elfogadás kockázati besorolására, a szolgáltatók elérhetőségére, a fraud monitoringra és a vásárlók hitelkártyás pénzvisszatérítésére is. Megmutatjuk, mit jelent kereskedőként, és hogyan segít ebben a POSnavigator.
A hospitality venue with HUF 1 million daily turnover could lose roughly HUF 10.9 million a year in tips if its POS terminal does not support digital tipping properly. We show what to check and why providers like SimplePay and HelloPay highlight it explicitly.
Smart POS or basic card reader? See when an intelligent POS terminal is worth it in Hungary: Android apps, QR and qvik payments, tipping, cashier integration, reports, loyalty features and a practical merchant checklist.
