One of the highlights of the event was our Chief Technology Officer, George Jiang, taking part in a thought-provoking panel discussion on “Vehicle Commerce: Nuts and Bolts of Payments, Parking, and Charging,” alongside Todd Bellion, Director of Payment Facilitation and Integrated Payments of Payroc, and Max Venn-Russell, Director of New Business of NMI.

During the panel discussion, George emphasized the necessity for payment devices that are ready for all types of payments and reliable in a challenging outdoor environment.

1. Extended Operating Temperature: Thriving in Extreme Conditions

From scorching summer days to freezing winter nights, EV charging stations are exposed to extreme environmental conditions. One of the primary challenges faced by payment devices integrated into EV chargers is the necessity to operate reliably across a wide range of temperatures.

George highlighted that ID TECH differentiates itself from competitors by engineering payment devices capable of withstanding extended temperature ranges from -40°C to 85°C (-40 °F to 185 °F), ready to be embedded in an EV charger where the electric currents generate excessive heat. By designing products for specific extended temperature ranges and extreme environments, ID TECH ensures the life span of our products won’t be negatively impacted by the heat, saving a significant amount of maintenance costs.

2. Water Resistance: Defying the Elements

In addition to temperature extremes, EV charging stations are often subjected to moisture and inclement weather conditions. Rain, snow, or even splashes from nearby vehicles can pose a threat to the functionality of payment devices.

George introduced how ID TECH raised the bar for internal water-resistant testing:

“In the international standard waterproof test, the streams of water only apply to the device for three minutes, which is very short…When we do our test, we do ten continuous days. Each day, we do water spray for 30 minutes. And [at the end of the ten days] we open the unit to see if there is any water in it.”

With robust sealing and protective measures in place, our payment devices are engineered to defy the elements, guaranteeing reliable operation even in a harsh winter storm.

3. Seamless User Experience: Easy integration

From contactless payments to mobile app integrations, staying ahead of the curve is essential for meeting the demands of tomorrow’s EV ecosystem. George stressed the significance of ensuring a frictionless experience for EV charger manufacturers when it comes to payment.

“People who make EV chargers do not want to get involved in learning how the payment works. The ease of integration and the ability to provide a turnkey solution is extremely important.”

Partnering with payment gateways and payment processors, like NMI and Payroc, ID TECH can get EV chargers and parking facilities on board with card and mobile payments quickly and securely by providing an all-in-one payment solution.

About Payroc

Payroc makes it easy for ISVs to develop merchant solutions without needing specific payments expertise. ISVs can simply leverage Payroc’s suite of APIs to handle everything from onboarding to transaction handling, settlements, and reporting.

How ID TECH and Payroc Make Unattended Solutions Simple

Working together, ID TECH and Payroc offer ISVs several shared benefits that can’t be found in every hardware/payment gateway combination.

Customization
ID TECH’s hardware can be customized to offer the customer experience merchants need to deliver – including custom workflows and messages. Because Payroc is payments agnostic, ISVs can determine which payment options they need to offer and even change those options with little to no issue.

Adaptability
As technical innovation continues to speed up exponentially, merchants must be able to adapt. The same goes for solution partners. Both Payroc and ID TECH work closely with ISVs to understand what they see as their future trajectory. From there, Payroc and ID TECH can help those ISVs achieve their goals with adaptable solutions. This gives ISVs confidence to know they can count on a partnership that is poised to grow with them.

Of course, customization can be handled easily as well. And because Payroc and ID TECH have been collaborating for more than a decade, their teams know the quickest ways to facilitate that customization with little fanfare.

How Payroc and ID TECH Deliver on Unattended Parking

Payroc and ID TECH work together to solve the challenges that come with unattended parking payment solutions.

Environmental Demands
Unattended parking payments solutions have to withstand some of the worst environmental conditions. Most unattended pay stations or meters are exposed to sun, snow, moisture, and rain. They’re often not covered or protected from the elements. If the unattended devices degrade in these circumstances, the parking merchant may end up saddled with the high cost of service calls.

ID TECH solves for that problem with payment devices designed to stand up to some of the coldest and hottest climates. They require little maintenance and have superior performance in these rough environments.

Power Limitations
Parking meters, pay stations, and kiosks are typically located on the street or in a lot. That means they can’t be hooked to an electrical power source. Resourceful parking merchants may use solar panels to power those meters and pay stations, but the amount of power is limited. The last thing parking merchants need is a payments device that sucks up the limited energy those solar panels generate.

ID TECH devices are incredibly efficient and designed to run on as little power as possible. Input power is only nine volts and the device goes into sleep mode when not being used to reduce power consumption as much as possible.

Distinguishing Devices
Another challenge is managing hundreds or even thousands of individual devices in one system. If an issue with a device arises, revenue is on the line – so the merchant needs to be able to locate the device quickly and accurately.

ID TECH offers Concierge, a remote web-based terminal management system where parking merchants can remotely control and manage devices and integrated systems. Each pay station is assigned a unique identifier and can be quickly found using GPS.

Omnichannel Payments Needs
Parking merchants need to offer today’s customers a full array of payment options, including pay-ahead or subscription, in-app payments, and device-specific payments such as magnetic swipe, EMV, and digital wallets.

ID TECH devices have tremendous flexibility for accepting payment types, even allowing for loyalty cards and student parking programs as payment. Payroc’s gateway is payments agnostic, so parking merchants can offer virtually any option mentioned above while consolidating all reporting into one account.
