Keep Every POS Terminal Connected

POS downtime is expensive. In the food and beverage sector, outages can cost US$4,000 to US$30,000 per hour, and just 30 minutes during peak service may wipe out tens of thousands in sales. 

Unlike Wi-Fi or single-carrier SIMs, POND IoT solutions are built to provide true redundancy and continuous uptime for your POS systems.

We deliver:

  • Multi-Carrier (Multi-IMSI) SIMs that automatically switch across networks to maintain seamless connection
  • Internet backup to keep transactions flowing when primary connections fail
  • LTE/5G over VPN for secure, encrypted payment data
  • Coverage for card machines, mobile POS terminals, and PIN pads on the road, or even in remote areas

With POND IoT, your POS systems stay online, protecting both your sales and your customer data.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About POS Connectivity

Still have questions about keeping your payment systems online? Here are clear answers to the most common queries about POS connectivity, data plans, and internet backup.
How can I protect my POS from internet outages?

With our Internet Failover solution, powered by Multi-Carrier (Multi-IMSI) SIM technology and LTE/5G backup, your POS terminals stay online even if the primary internet goes down. The SIM automatically switches across available networks, maintaining connectivity so transactions continue smoothly and payment data stays secure.

How does Multi-IMSI SIM technology work for POS? Instead of locking your POS to a single carrier, our Multi-Carrier (Multi-IMSI) SIM connects to multiple networks and automatically switches across them. This ensures your payment terminals stay connected and downtime is minimized.
Do I need new hardware to use LTE/5G backup for POS? In most cases, no. Many POS terminals already support SIM or eSIM. For others, adding a small LTE/5G-enabled device is enough to enable failover. Setup is quick and doesn’t require major changes to your existing systems.
Is LTE/5G secure enough for payment processing? Yes. Our POS connectivity uses LTE/5G over VPN with end-to-end encryption, keeping all payment data isolated and secure. This approach safeguards sensitive transactions and supports PCI DSS compliance.
Can I use eSIM with my POS terminals? Yes. If your POS devices support eSIM, you can activate our service instantly without needing a physical SIM card. It’s fast, convenient, and ideal for multi-location rollouts.
How much will I pay for POS data plans? Pricing depends on your data usage, number of terminals, and whether you use our service as a backup or primary connection. POND IoT offers custom data plans that scale with your business, so you only pay for the connectivity you actually need.
