I called FD today and they confirmed that the FD 10 is NOT pci compliant.

I also went directly to the Visa folks who confirmed this as well.

The fines for non-PCI compliant pin pads is insane.

I had a Suntrust rep walk in and proceed to tell me that my current set-up was in violation of the new PCI regs(which it is not) and then tried to LEASE me a FD 10 pin pad for 39.99 PER MONTH which IS NOT compliant.

BEWARE….the PCI link is there in my last post and it is up to the minute.

I can’t find it in on First Data’s brochure or on the website, but I’m pretty sure that it is compliant.

Most likely it just hasn’t been listed on the PCI standards website yet as well.

Are the FD-10 pin pads not PCI compliant?

Its one of the amazing terminals FD-100 and i can says that because i am with FDMS from last 2yrs.And if any other terminal on normal phone line takes 1min to process a card,this terminal takes only 5secs on Ip.

Hi - does anyone know if you can mount a FD100 to the wall using an external WiFi module, or is there any other way to wall mount it? Thx!

Yes, IP enabled means that it will process over an Ethernet connection. The WiFi version may be standard at this point, but I would check before hand if you’re going to purchase one.

When they say it’s “IP” enabled, does that mean it has an Ethernet Jack right on it? And WiFi is optional?

After having a bad experience over the phone with a company selling items having to do with products like this I’ve learned to do my research before making a purchase. This is a solid review of the FD-100; thanks for being willing to take the time to post this information.

It will work with any processor using FDMS, but if you want to move to a processor using Nova, Global, MSI, or another non-FDMS processor it wont work with them. Check out the other post as well, as the price has gone up considerably since First Data’s initial projection.
