The Terminal Line Built For Dual Pricing.
PAX builds Android-based smart terminals with customer-facing screens that display cash and card pricing side by side. It’s one of the most widely deployed terminal brands in the country, and it’s a workhorse of the dual pricing world: the screen does the explaining, so your cashier doesn’t have to. If you want a countertop or handheld device that’s fast, familiar to customers, and built to present two prices without drama, PAX is a first-look brand — not exotic, just proven.
Here’s what changes when one lands on a Texas counter. The customer taps, sees both prices, picks, and moves on — the awkward “there’s a fee for card” conversation disappears because the terminal states it plainly. Receipts print with the compliant breakdown automatically. Batches close on schedule, tips adjust on screen instead of on paper, and your morning starts with a portal that shows yesterday’s numbers instead of a calculator and a stack of slips.
With dual pricing on a PAX screen, the terminal presents the cash price and card price to the customer directly — the single biggest factor in a program that runs smoothly versus one that creates counter arguments.

PAX Owners Ask Us
Why do dual pricing merchants end up on PAX so often?
Because the customer-facing screen carries the program. PAX terminals display both prices and let the customer choose, which keeps the checkout conversation short and the disclosure clear. For Texas merchants we pair the hardware with correct signage so the whole setup is compliant, not just the screen.
Is PAX a processor or just the machine?
Just the machine — PAX makes the hardware, and Lone Star Payments provides the processing behind it. That distinction matters: your rates, support, and funding come from us in Dallas, and the terminal is the tool we program to run your pricing the way you approved it.
What if my PAX terminal breaks on a Saturday?
Call our Dallas-based support line. Most issues resolve remotely — reboots, reloads, connection failovers — and if the hardware is genuinely dead, we overnight a pre-programmed replacement so you’re not down for the week.
