PCI & EMV Certified Palm Vein POS — HF-HP500PV
The HF-HP500PV is a PCI EMV certified palm vein POS terminal — a 5-inch Android 12 handheld with three-in-one card reading, a 58 mm thermal printer, 4G and a 5200 mAh battery, built on the palm vein core for acquirer-ready counters.

Why HF-HP500PV
Certified for the Acquirer, Fast Enough for Peak Hour
The fastest path to a certified biometric counter — card reading, palm vein and receipt printing in one handheld.
Certified Where It Counts
PCI PTS 6.x and EMV L1&L2 — the certification wall your acquirer asks for, already cleared from the factory. Most palm vein devices on the market are only “certification-ready”; this one is certified.
Financial-Grade Palm Vein Accuracy
The contactless palm vein module delivers FAR ≤ 0.0000001%, FRR ≤ 0.01% and wave-and-go verification in under 500 ms: one false accept in ten million impostor attempts.
Three-in-One Card Reading
Magnetic stripe, IC chip and contactless (NFC) reading in the same 5-inch handheld — one terminal replaces the card reader, the biometric box and the printer at the counter.
Runs a Whole Shift Untethered
A 5200 mAh battery and 4G / Wi-Fi keep the terminal selling at pop-up counters, queue-busting stations and mobile points — with the 58 mm printer on board for receipts.
Acquirer-Ready Out of the Box
Certificates and test reports ship with the SDK and a sample app, so your acquirer conversation starts on day one instead of after an integration project.
Feature Set
One Biometric Core, One App, One Counter Device
Everything below ships with the HF-HP500PV — pilot once, scale on the same codebase.
🖐 Palm Vein Core
Financial-grade identity, contactless
- Contactless liveness recognition — wave the palm over the sensor; nothing to touch, nothing to clean
- FAR ≤ 0.0000001% — at most one false accept in ten million impostor attempts
- Under 500 ms — palm hover authorises the payment; peak-hour throughput without queues
- Encrypted templates — biometric data never leaves the terminal in the clear
🤲 Certification Set
Onboarding without workarounds
- PCI PTS 6.x — the acquirer security specification, factory certified
- EMV L1 & L2 — card-reading compliance on the terminal itself
- Documents included — certificates and test reports for acquirer submission
- 4G & Wi-Fi — connectivity for branch, kiosk and mobile counters

FAQ
HF-HP500PV — Frequently Asked Questions
Does a palm vein POS terminal need PCI or EMV certification?
Only when the device itself reads cards or processes payment transactions — and the HF-HP500PV does exactly that, which is why it carries PCI PTS 6.x and EMV L1&L2.
What is the difference between the HP500PV and the HP705PV?
The palm vein core is identical — the same module with FAR ≤ 0.0000001% and wave-and-go verification under 500 ms. The hardware tier differs: the HP500PV is a 5-inch handheld on Android 12 (1 GB + 8 GB) with PCI PTS 6.x and three-in-one card reading; the HP705PV is a dual-screen flagship on Android 14 (2 GB + 16 GB) with PCI PTS 7.x, contactless L1, eight card schemes, 2×PSAM, GNSS and a docking base with Ethernet.
Which counters is the HP500PV best suited to?
Single-country card rollouts, canteen and QSR counters, teller windows, duty-free lanes and mobile points of sale — anywhere a compact handheld with certified card reading, palm vein and a built-in 58 mm printer is enough. For multi-region rollouts that need eight card schemes, choose the HP705PV.
What does FAR ≤ 0.0000001% mean in practice?
At most one false acceptance in ten million impostor attempts — the accuracy class financial institutions require for payment-grade biometrics. Legitimate customers are kept moving by FRR ≤ 0.01%.
How fast is a palm vein payment at the counter?
Wave-and-go verification completes in under 500 ms — the customer hovers a palm, the terminal matches, and the payment is authorised. No card handover, no PIN pad for on-account or biometric-first flows; PIN applies only where the card scheme itself requires it.
How long does the battery last away from the counter?
The 5200 mAh battery keeps the terminal selling through a full shift at pop-up counters, queue-busting stations and mobile points, with 4G and Wi-Fi keeping it online throughout.
Do you support OEM / ODM branding?
Yes. As the factory since 2005, HFSecurity provides OEM branding, packaging and firmware customization, with OEM / ODM engineering support in-house.
