We are wondering how cheap a manufactuer can build a credit card terminal?!
We have bought a calculator with a thermo-printer for 8,- USD where we have analyzed the hardware and found out, that when adding a modem (1,- USD) chip, a magnetic stripe reader (5,- USD) and a bigger display (2,- USD) you have everything you need for a credit card terminal.
For this reason we believe that it must be possible to build a credit card terminal for less than 25,- USD! We need a real high amount of terminals, since we want to give them away for free and get new customers for our services - we want to target all the companies who currently don't have a credit card terminal...
If you think you can provide us a solution which fits into our pricerange please get back to us. We may pay a yearly ongoing support-fee for software upgrades, etc... on top!
Thanks!
