Get Card Request API in SPIn API

Get Card Request API in SPIn API

Minimum Required POS Build: 10145

We’re introducing the GetCard Request API to the SPIn specification. This new functionality allows a POS system to securely prompt the customer to present their card directly on the payment terminal. The card can be provided through:

  • Swipe

  • Manual entry

  • Other supported methods

Once captured, the relevant card data is transmitted securely back to the POS system for further use.

Benefits

  • Security: Card entry happens directly on the payment terminal—avoiding manual input on the POS.

  • Convenience: Reduces human error during entry and speeds up the process.

  • Flexibility: Supports both payment and non-payment workflows.
