Product: T7Plus with Big 5 Chinese character font software
Company: Hypercom Corp. and U.S. Bankcard Services Inc.

U.S. Bankcard Services, a merchant service provider for credit card processing, has a strong presence in the Chinese-American market segment across the United States. With a special POS solution in mind for these customers, the company has partnered with Hypercom to offer the first multi-language POS terminal with both Chinese and English graphics and text.

The terminal is Hypercom's T7Plus with Big 5 Chinese character font software for credit and debit applications. Big 5 is a character encoding method used in Taiwan (Republic of China) and Hong Kong to enable traditional Chinese characters to be rendered digitally (to learn more about Chinese characters visit www.languagehelpers.com/languagefacts/Chinese.html).

The T7Plus is a compact device that will fit easily on a countertop. It includes a built-in printer that loads paper rolls via "drop in" rather than feeding it through slots and rollers.
