Great retail experiences don't just depend on software—they depend on the devices at checkout. The right hardware keeps checkout fast and dependable through every sale, so staff can stay focused on customers. That means hardware you can trust, options that fit your store, and a setup that won't hold you back as you grow.
In December, we introduced Shopify POS Hub: bringing rock-solid wired connectivity and broader compatibility for the peripherals retailers rely on most, like payment terminals, barcode scanners and printers.
Today, we're announcing the next step. Shopify is partnering with Verifone, an industry leader in retail hardware, to bring more card reader options to Shopify POS. We're starting with select devices from the Verifone Victa portfolio.
"Shopify has built one of the most powerful POS platforms in retail,” says Rajeev Yerukalapudi, EVP, Global Head of Strategy and Partnerships, Verifone. By bringing Victa devices to Shopify POS, we’re expanding hardware choice with performance, security, and accessibility — so merchants can deploy checkout experiences that are reliable today and built to scale as their needs evolve.”
Trusted hardware for Shopify POS
Verifone builds payment hardware trusted by retailers around the world. Together, we're bringing proven, enterprise‑grade devices to Shopify merchants of all sizes.
We're starting with two countertop terminals: Victa Mobile countertop and Victa Lane. These devices expand your options at the counter, and Victa Lane introduces a new form factor for checkout. With its larger, landscape-oriented display, the Victa Lane gives you more room to showcase your brand while making cart building and checkout flows a more engaging experience for shoppers.
Built to perform over the long term
Verifone Victa devices are designed to perform reliably over years of daily use, helping merchants stay fast, secure, and inclusive as their businesses grow and as technology evolves:
- Fast, responsive checkout: Powered by an industry-leading Dragonwing Qualcomm Octa‑core processor, Victa devices keep transactions smooth and lines moving—so staff can focus on customers, not delays.
- Security you can count on: PCI 7‑ready and protected by Verifone's industry-leading anti‑fraud technologies, including remote anti‑skimming detection Victa devices help safeguard every transaction and build shopper trust.
- Built for the realities of retail: With rugged construction and IP52/IP53 ratings Victa devices are made to withstand dust, spills, and constant use—delivering dependable performance all day, every day.
- Accessible by design: Integrated, award‑winning Verifone Navigator—certified by RNIB—provides on-device guidance that helps blind and low-vision shoppers navigate checkout confidently, supporting more inclusive in-store experiences.
Your checkout, designed your way
Your store design is intentional. It's part of your brand, and part of the experience customers come back for. Checkout needs that same level of fit. By expanding device selection through trusted partners like Verifone, Shopify merchants get more choice from a carefully curated lineup of certified hardware. That means more options of devices that fit your counter and work seamlessly with Shopify POS.
POS Hub helps make that setup more reliable. It connects your card reader and peripherals directly to iPad and Android tablets through wired connections, so everything stays in sync and checkout runs smoothly. POS Hub also expands compatibility with more peripherals that work with Shopify POS, so you have more flexibility to build the countertop experience that fits your store.
What this means for you:
- More choice in card readers from an industry-leading partner.
- Reliable performance on the counter, powered by POS Hub.
- Expanded compatibility with more peripherals that "just work."
- Continuous improvements delivered through a hardware ecosystem built for scale.
This approach helps you keep pace with innovation and gives you reliable, proven options—so you can design the countertop that fits your brand, run with confidence, and evolve as your needs change.
"Great retail runs on amazing software—unrestricted by hardware,” says Ray Reddy, VP, Retail Product, Shopify. “By partnering with Verifone, we bring Shopify’s leading POS operating system to best-in-class devices. And the Victa lineup, anchored by POS Hub, gives Shopify merchants real choice, rock-solid reliability, and peripherals that just work.” Reddy continues:, “Merchants get to design the countertop that fits their needs, and keep pace as tech evolves."
