Industries
Integrations
Payter Cloud API
Terminal connects to the Payter Cloud API. The CSMS controls sessions, branding, and pricing. One terminal can manage multiple chargers.
Documentation →Payter Session Protocol
Direct TCP-IP, USB-C, or RS232 to the charger or machine controller. Fast, offline-capable, no internet required.
Documentation →OCPI 2.2.1 / 2.3.0
OCPI 2.2.1 and 2.3.0 with Direct Payment modules. For CSMS providers and backend developers.
Documentation →MDB Level 1—3
Industry-standard vending protocol. Configured by Payter on request; no integration work required.
Documentation →Standalone fixed-price
Standalone fixed-price mode. The terminal operates without a host device — charity tins, donation points, air and water dispensers, car wash, laundry. Up to eight configurable products, each with its own label and price.
Documentation →Pulse output
An electrical signal on successful payment that mimics a coin acceptor — so the simplest hosts can act on a tap without any software change. Pairs with Autoscan or Cloud (since February 2026).
Documentation →Also: Payter Transaction Host for closed user groups, loyalty wallets, and prepaid card schemes. Documentation on request ↗
