Frequently Asked Questions

  • What machines are compatible with the SynthiaX-1 vending machine payment system?

    SynthiaX-1 is compatible with all MDB-compliant vending machines (snack, cold drink, coffee, combo) and legacy pulse-driven devices, arcade games, car washes, and self-service lockers via specialized interface boards like CoreLink 16 and the Multi-Pulse Module.

  • How does the 4G telemetry system work?

    Every SynthiaX-1 terminal has an embedded 4G LTE eSIM. It automatically transmits real-time DEX audit logs, sales metrics, stock levels, and error alerts (such as coin jams or temperature spikes) to your Ardelino Telemetry dashboard on mobile or desktop.

  • Are there any hidden PCI compliance or monthly gateway fees?

    No. SynthiaX operates on transparent pricing with zero hidden PCI compliance or gateway fees. Hardware starts from £140 per unit, SIM + TMS subscription is £7/month per terminal, and transaction fees are IC++ 1.20% for UK, EU, and Switzerland.

  • Can I test a single terminal before upgrading my entire fleet?

    Yes. SynthiaX-1 has a Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) of 1 unit and comes with a 30-day, 100% money-back guarantee. Route operators can test a single demo terminal in their workshop or on a live location completely risk-free.

  • How does the Flair Cards closed-loop prepaid system benefit corporate locations?

    Flair Cards allow operators to issue branded NFC cards or QR codes to staff in corporate offices, hospitals, or universities. Employees pre-load funds, and transactions process with 0% banking fees, eliminating micro-transaction processing costs.

  • How can a single SynthiaX-1 payment terminal control multiple vending machines or amusement racks?

    SynthiaX-1 controls up to 16 separate pulse-driven vending machines or amusement shelves using the optional CoreLink 16 Integration Board (£95 hardware). This eliminates purchasing 16 separate card readers, saving over 70% in capital expenditure for multi-cabinet locations.

  • What happens if a vending machine is located in an underground basement or weak 4G signal area?

    SynthiaX-1 features multi-network cellular auto-failover. For low-signal environments like basements, operators can attach external 2-meter (£12) or 10-meter (£18) GSM antennas, or connect an optional Ethernet Adapter (£58) for hardwired network connectivity.

  • Can SynthiaX-1 be installed on older non-MDB machines, arcade games, or coin-operated equipment?

    Yes. SynthiaX-1 retrofits legacy non-MDB equipment using the Multi-Pulse Module (£25) and Industrial Universal Mounting Bracket (£5). The Multi-Pulse Module interfaces with up to 3 coin mechanisms or bill acceptors, ensuring exact pulse credit delivery without missed credits.

  • What payment methods and international currencies does SynthiaX-1 accept, and what are the transaction fees?

    SynthiaX-1 accepts Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and dynamic QR codes. Transaction fees are IC++ 1.20% across the UK, EU, and Switzerland (with QR rates like 1.75% in Thailand and 1.0% in Indonesia), settled daily, weekly, or monthly.

  • How does SynthiaX-1 enable cashless payments for micro-markets, smart fridges, and heated food lockers?

    SynthiaX-1 integrates with smart fridges and heated food lockers using the MagPay Magnetic Board System (£35 add-on). MagPay links electromagnetic door locks with payment pre-authorization, unlocking the unit only after a valid card tap while tracking internal temperatures via telemetry.
