To support visually impaired cardholders, we have developed an alternative PIN entry mode that replaces the standard soft keyboard with a gesture-based PIN input system. Key Features:
- PIN input via tap and swipe gestures instead of visible PIN buttons
- Audio instructions are provided in the selected application language
- The mode is not enabled by default and requires explicit activation for each transaction
The European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies across the entire European Union. This legislation affects a wide range of sectors and areas, including banking services, retail, and payment terminals. tapXphone operates successfully in many countries: Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Slovakia, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, and Hungary.

The new EAA legislation represents an important milestone aimed at making digital services accessible to a broad range of users. By implementing enhancements to our application, we strive to demonstrate our commitment to social responsibility and digital inclusion. By enabling payments for goods and services through tapXphone, we allow consumers with disabilities to confidently use our solution. A positive user experience should be available to everyone, regardless of age, physical limitations, or various conditions.
It should be noted that tapXphone strictly complies with all requirements imposed on SoftPOS solution providers, including application security, transaction protection, and acceptance of cards from various payment systems across different regions.
