ITC Systems is a world leader in integrated transaction control

Unattended Point of Sale (UPOS) Terminals exclusively for a multitude
of self-serve applications. Our traditional markets are the
Educational and other similar institutions where a need to streamline
cash flow and promote convenience are inherent in a closed
environment. ITC has met this need over the years by supplying them
with card systems (mag and chip) and related software.
With this experience behind us we developed our UPOS Terminals to
accept the Mondex scheme. Our Mondex UPOS Terminals are successfully
installed on vending machines, copiers and cash registers. These
terminals control the self-serve machine and charge for the use or for
the product(s) dispensed. To operate, a valid Mondex card is inserted,
the vend is made and the amount deducted from the purse on the card.
Our terminals can use MM2, MM4 and Purse 2 cards.
To compliment the UPOS Terminals, ITC Systems provides card
dispensing and add value products, these devices accept currency to
dispense or add value to cards. This is very popular in closed
environments where users need to add value to their cards.
ITC Systems continues to develop our Terminals to provide our
customers with the most up to date product on the self-serve market
today. Please contact us for more information.
