Frequently Asked Questions About Refurbished Terminals
What does "refurbished" mean for credit card terminals?
Refurbished terminals are previously used devices restored to manufacturer specifications. DCCSupply's refurbishment process includes inspecting all hardware components, replacing worn or damaged parts (card readers, keypads, displays, connectors), updating software to current versions, and testing all payment functions (EMV chip reading, contactless NFC, magnetic stripe). Each terminal is cleaned, repackaged, and sold with a 1-year warranty covering hardware defects and software malfunctions.
Do refurbished terminals come with a warranty?
Yes. All refurbished terminals from DCCSupply include a 1-year warranty covering hardware defects (card reader failures, keypad issues, display problems, connectivity defects) and software malfunctions. This matches the warranty provided on new terminals. Extended warranties and Quick Swap protection plans are available for purchase. Warranty claims are handled through DCCSupply's repair center with same-day shipping for replacement units when available.
How much can I save buying refurbished instead of new?
Refurbished terminals typically cost 30-50% less than new units. For example, a new PAX S300 countertop terminal retails for approximately $250-350, while a refurbished unit costs $150-200. A Verifone Vx520 new costs $200-300; refurbished units start around $100-150. Exact savings depend on terminal model, brand, and current inventory availability.
Are refurbished terminals compatible with my payment processor?
Most refurbished terminals support major processors including First Data, TSYS, Elavon, Worldpay, and others. Compatibility depends on the specific terminal model and your processor's requirements. DCCSupply offers terminal programming services to configure terminals for your processor before shipment. Contact DCCSupply at 847-266-1220 or sales@discountcreditcardsupply.com to verify compatibility before ordering.
What payment types do refurbished terminals accept?
Refurbished terminals listed in this collection support EMV chip cards, contactless payments (NFC/tap-to-pay including Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay), and magnetic stripe cards. Specific capabilities vary by terminal model—check individual product listings for details. All terminals meet current PCI security standards and support encrypted transactions.
Can I return a refurbished terminal if it doesn't work?
Yes. DCCSupply offers a 30-day return policy on refurbished terminals. Terminals must be in like-new condition with original packaging to qualify for return. If a terminal arrives defective or malfunctions within the warranty period, DCCSupply will repair or replace it at no charge. Return shipping costs are the buyer's responsibility unless the terminal was defective on arrival.
What's the difference between countertop and wireless refurbished terminals?
Countertop terminals remain in a fixed location and connect via Ethernet or dial-up phone line. They're ideal for retail stores with stationary checkout counters. Wireless terminals connect via WiFi or cellular networks and include rechargeable batteries, making them suitable for restaurants (tableside payments), delivery services, mobile businesses, and outdoor events. Wireless terminals cost more than countertop models but offer mobility. Cellular wireless terminals require a monthly SIM card plan (available from DCCSupply).
How long do refurbished terminals last?
Under normal processing conditions, refurbished terminals typically last 5-8 years or approximately 100,000 transaction hours. Lifespan depends on transaction volume, operating environment, and maintenance. High-volume merchants (processing hundreds of transactions daily) may need to replace terminals sooner than low-volume users. DCCSupply offers repair services to extend terminal life when components wear out.
