Which payment terminals are compatible with Tailwind stands?
Tailwind manufactures mounting solutions for a variety of compatible payment terminals. Each product page lists the supported terminal models to help you select the correct stand for your device. If you're unsure which Tailwind stand is right for your payment terminal, our team is happy to help.
Which Tailwind mounting solutions are available?
The Tailwind collection includes countertop stands, freestanding stands, wall mounts, FlexiPole® mounting solutions, and other mounting options designed for compatible payment terminals. Available configurations vary by terminal model. Refer to the individual product pages for compatibility and available features.
What's the difference between a stand and a terminal mount?
A freestanding stand sits securely on the countertop and can be repositioned as needed without permanent installation. A terminal mount attaches to the countertop, wall, or another surface for a more permanent installation. The best option depends on your checkout environment, available counter space, and security requirements.
Do I need to drill into my counter to install a Tailwind stand?
Installation requirements vary by model. Some Tailwind stands are freestanding and require no permanent installation, while others are designed for secure countertop or wall mounting. Refer to the individual product page for installation details.
Should I choose the 3-inch Compact Pole or the 7-inch FlexiPole?
The 3-inch Compact Pole keeps the payment terminal closer to the countertop, making it a good choice for limited counter space or lower-profile installations. The 7-inch FlexiPole elevates the payment terminal for improved visibility and customer accessibility, making it a popular option for retail checkout counters and other customer-facing environments.
Do Tailwind stands include cable management?
Yes. Many Tailwind stands feature integrated cable routing that helps keep power and communication cables organized and out of sight. Proper cable management creates a cleaner checkout area while helping reduce cable wear during everyday use.
Are Tailwind stands available for PIN pads?
Yes. Tailwind offers mounting solutions for select payment terminals and PIN pads. Compatibility varies by model, so refer to the individual product page to confirm support for your specific payment device.
Can I use a Tailwind stand with a wireless payment terminal?
Yes. Tailwind offers mounting solutions for compatible wired and wireless payment terminals. Wireless payment terminals can remain securely mounted while charging and can be removed when mobility is needed, depending on the stand design.
How easy is installation?
Most Tailwind mounting solutions install quickly using the included mounting hardware or according to the installation method specified for the product. Depending on the model, installation may include freestanding placement, countertop mounting, wall mounting, or other secure mounting options.
