Nayax has launched a new Android-based payment terminal designed to support the growing demand for secure, higher-value transactions across the UK’s unattended retail and self-service sectors.
The new VPOS Media 4 terminal supports both contactless and chip-and-PIN payments and has been developed for use in unattended environments such as vending, EV charging, parking, kiosks and laundromats.
The terminal combines payment processing, loyalty programmes, remote device management and consumer engagement tools within Nayax’s integrated commerce platform. It also supports EMV, NFC and QR code payments through an open API architecture.
The launch comes as unattended retail operators face growing infrastructure and regulatory pressures, including PCI DSS compliance, Strong Customer Authentication requirements and the phase-out of 2G and 3G telecom networks across the UK.
Yair Nechmad, CEO and chairman at Nayax, said: “Many legacy unattended terminals were designed for low-value vending transactions and are not equipped for high-value PIN payments, evolving compliance requirements or telecom network sunset resilience”.
“As unattended services expand into areas like EV charging, parking and kiosks, operators need payment technology capable of supporting larger transactions securely and reliably.”
VPOS Media 4 is Nayax’s first terminal to integrate PCI PTS 6.x certified PIN-on-Glass technology with a 4-inch colour touchscreen, allowing merchants to operate in higher-value and regulated environments.
The device also supports remote configuration and over-the-air updates, while its Android-based architecture enables operators and OEMs to develop custom applications integrated with Nayax’s payment infrastructure.
Lynda Clarke, general manager UK at Nayax, described the device as turning “the point of sale into a point of engagement”.
“By combining platform flexibility with regulatory readiness, the device helps merchants build stronger customer relationships, unlock new sustainable growth opportunities, and future-proof their operations as they enter new markets,” she added.
The launch forms part of Nayax’s wider strategy to expand its smart unattended commerce platform. In Q1 2026, the company reported revenue of $107 million, representing 32% year-over-year growth, while its installed base surpassed 1.5 million connected devices globally.
