The excitement surrounding the new AXIUM range, especially the flagship DX8 model, showcases how customers value devices that blend exceptional design with real enterprise power. Floris de Kort, CEO of Ingenico, states, "With Ingenico 360, we offer a secure and scalable platform that enables our clients to enhance their payment experiences more swiftly and confidently as the future of payments accelerates."

Ingenico 360: A Unified Payment Operations Platform

Ingenico 360 is a native cloud platform that integrates terminal management, transaction services, point-of-sale connectivity, applications, merchant tools, data analytics, digital receipts, and developer capabilities within a cohesive architecture. The platform's common data services operate seamlessly across all components, providing complete visibility and deeper operational insights.

Currently available in Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific, Ingenico 360 leverages the company's global presence, managing tens of millions of payment terminals worldwide. The platform’s modular approach allows clients to progressively adopt services and extend functionalities over time without requiring a complete rearchitecture of their existing systems.

Real-time monitoring, analytics, and remote management enable proactive issue detection, quicker resolution, and improved uptime among distributed large parks. Erik Vlugt, Ingenico’s product manager, emphasizes that both AXIUM and Ingenico 360 were designed as a unique platform. "With the next-generation AXIUM family, we provide a unified, AI-ready payment foundation with shared certifications, upgrade paths, and extensive capabilities. Together with Ingenico 360, we empower our clients to scale globally, innovate quickly, and launch new services without adding operational complexity."

A Comprehensive Solution Developed End-to-End by Ingenico

Ingenico’s terminals and Ingenico 360 platform are conceived, developed, secured, and supported entirely by Ingenico teams. This in-house design model, executed in France, allows the company to maintain full ownership of its entire technological stack. This approach fosters robust intellectual property protection and long-term platform continuity, quickly adjusting to evolving innovation, security, compliance, and regulatory needs. It addresses growing data sovereignty and geopolitical risk concerns that are increasingly significant for banks, acquirers, and large merchants operating on a global scale.
