Using the ViVOpay Kiosk III to Make a Purchase
Presenting Cards or NFC Phones
The ViVOpay Kiosk III allows for credit/debit card purchases using Contactless technology.
Present the card/phone in close proximity to the front portion of the antenna module. Present
the card/phone so that maximum surface area is parallel to the antenna module as shown below.
The antenna should beep and all four green LEDs should illuminate briefly to indicate a successful
test.
This tests the antenna's ability to read the Contactless test card. If unsuccessful, there will be no
reaction from the reader. If you use a test card and the Kiosk III antenna is attached to the Kiosk
III Controller, a dummy transaction can be tested. The transaction will not be authorized and will
come back with a response, but will at least test for end-to-end connectivity.

Installation Points
The Kiosk III is designed to be mounted on a metal surface and in close proximity to any
internal motors and electrical devices that may be operating inside the kiosk. However, the
Kiosk III is susceptible to RF and electromagnetic interference. It is important that the unit
not be mounted near (within 3 or 4 feet) large electric motors, computer UPS systems,
microwave transmitters, anti-theft devices, radio transmitters, communications equipment
and so on.
Close proximity of metal to the RF-emitting end of the antenna can greatly reduce the range
of the antenna. See the precautions described in Flush Mounting the Kiosk III Antenna.
