Hypercom Corporation (NYSE: HYC) today announced that Central Payment Corporation (CPC), a leading merchant service provider and Independent Sales Organization, has selected and is now marketing Hypercom’s high security T4205 to its more than 25,000 US-based merchant customers. CPC will offer the T4205 as the terminal of choice to the 1,300 new merchants that it adds monthly. The T4205 is

replacing an incumbent terminal provider’s product. The action follows CPC’s Class A certification of the device.

“Our customers want products that can help them grow their business, and the T4205 does just that. This sleek product is a cut above anything remotely comparable, and we anticipate considerable demand,” said Zachary Hyman, Managing Partner, Central Payment Corporation.

“Savvy merchants want their transaction devices to incorporate rigorous security, high speed, increased memory and power. The T4205 delivers on all of those critical fronts and more,” said Bernie Frey, Vice President of North American Sales, Hypercom Corporation. “With leaders like Central Payment Corporation, we are bringing best value and benchmark setting products to the retail countertop.”


The T4205 is the newest member of Hypercom’s high security Optimum T4200 product family. That family for North America consists of four powerful 32-bit multi-application devices that share the same platform, user interface and software toolkit to maximize efficiency, application portability and offer customers a broad range of options to serve any market need.
