Pundi X, a “cryptocurrency point-of-sale” (POS) solutions provider based in Southeast Asia, announced on Jan. 2 the development of three functional POS devices ahead of the launch of their public token sale on Jan. 21.

Pundi X aims to allow retail store owners and their customers to easily convert between crypto, fiat, and cryptocurrency pairs for payment. The three devices consist of XPOS-1, a medium sized gateway for economical countertop use, XPOS-2 for handheld use outdoor and other venues with limited counter space, and XPOS-3 resembling an iPad and ideal for use in large retail operations seeking to display ads or other information on the screen. All three models are NFC-compatible and integrated with BTC, ETH, XEM, QTUM, as well as mobile wallets and bank cards, the company says.

Zac Cheah, CEO of Pundi X, said in a statement: “Due to the inquiries we received during the roadshows, the team decided to get more working products ready before our public token sale begins. We know that we need to get the devices made immediately and distributed right after the fundraising. 2018 will be an exciting year for Pundi X. We are ready and look forward to getting more cryptocurrencies in more places. ”

Pundi X says it has partnered with a handful of cryptocurrency and other companies to facilitate their POS services –  Appsolutely in the Phillipines, WandX and Retainly in India, and CannaSOS and U.CASH in the North American market.
