lidX and cash registers: A perfect symbiosis through innovative POS protocols


SoftPOS with lidX – The future of cashless payment acceptance on Android devices
SoftPOS with lidX is a modern, fully software-based solution that transforms Android smartphones and tablets into powerful, certified payment terminals (SmartPOS). This solution allows merchants, service providers, and organizations worldwide to accept contactless card payments (NFC) and digital wallet payments without additional hardware – simple, flexible, and cost-effective

At the heart of lidX SoftPOS is maximum compatibility with a wide range of payment methods. These include credit cards (e.g., Visa, Mastercard, American Express), debit cards (Maestro, V Pay, Girocard, Interac, Debit Mastercard, Visa Debit), and alternative payment methods (APMs) such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Alipay, WeChat Pay, PayPal, Twint, Bluecode, iDEAL, Bancontact, Wero, and many more

The lidX solution was developed to work seamlessly with various acquirer systems, payment service providers (PSPs), and SoftPOS SDK developers worldwide. The modular API and SDK structure plays a key role in this: Thanks to open interfaces and flexible payment SDK integration, lidX SoftPOS can be easily integrated into existing apps, platforms, and POS systems.

lidX's SoftPOS technology is based on the latest security standards and is PCI CPoC and MPoC ready, enabling secure PIN entry directly on the device's screen (PIN-on-Glass). The application is fully EMV compatible and supports major card protocols as well as regional and international certifications. This makes lidX suitable not only for the European market but also for global omnichannel payment strategies.

Digital receipt generation is fully integrated – receipts can be displayed directly on the device, saved, or sent to the customer via various channels such as email, SMS, or QR code. The receipt interface and language automatically adapt to the device's language settings, with over 100 languages supported. This multilingual approach makes lidX SoftPOS the ideal solution for international merchant networks, global brands, and multilingual point-of-sale systems.

In addition to traditional payment acceptance, lidX also includes optional additional features such as tips, cashback, customer loyalty, vouchers, tax-free payments, and discounts, which can be activated and configured depending on the use case. The solution can be used both as a standalone application and as a fully integrated component in existing mobile apps or POS systems – either via a white-label solution, an SDK module, or remotely deployed via MDM systems.

For companies with their own branding, lidX offers a fully white-label-capable interface including customizable CI/CD, icon sets, languages, and app names. The app can be made available via well-known app stores as well as via internal company distribution channels.

Thanks to its extensive support for POS protocols (including ZVT, Nexo, OPI, ep2, TIM, CB2), lidX is compatible with a wide range of POS systems, ERP solutions, and third-party systems. The clear separation of payment logic and user interface enables even complex payment scenarios such as split payments, pre-authorizations, refunds, pre- and post-tips, cashbacks, payment request links, and QR-based payments.

Another highlight is the integrated monitoring and reporting system, which records all transactions, terminals, and user activities via real-time APIs or web portals – ideal for payment service providers, resellers, ISVs, and platform providers who require centralized management of their SoftPOS fleet.

With SoftPOS powered by lidX, companies invest in a scalable, secure, and global platform for digital payment acceptance that reduces hardware costs, simplifies processes, and increases customer satisfaction.
