Worldline has introduced miniPOS Cube, a payment terminal designed for merchants in Switzerland.

The device supports TWINT, the Swiss mobile payment app, and accepts card and digital wallet payments.

Cashless payments now account for more than 76% of all transactions in Swiss retail, and the share continues to rise, according to the company.

Even so, many small business owners still face a choice between accepting cashless payments and keeping their operations simple.

This group includes market stall and food truck operators, caterers and mobile service providers.

In the company’s view, existing solutions often involve trade-offs, such as a limited choice of payment methods, high running costs or added operational complexity.

Worldline designed the miniPOS Cube to remove the need for such compromises.

The terminal is small enough to carry, and its battery lasts a full working day. It supports TWINT, all major card brands and digital wallets.

According to Worldline, it is the only device in its category to include TWINT as a core feature from the outset rather than adding it later.

Bernhard Lachenmeier, Managing Director of Worldline Switzerland, said small and mobile businesses in particular need payment solutions that work without complex infrastructure.

He added that the miniPOS Cube meets this need by combining a compact, flexible design with the payment methods customers now expect.

Merchants pay only when they process a transaction. There are no monthly base fees, setup costs or infrastructure requirements.

Businesses can start with a single device and decide for themselves when to add more. Each terminal costs CHF 89, including a charging station.
