Point Mobile continues its march toward winning orders for industrial enterprise tablet PCs this year.
Point Mobile announced on the 12th that it will supply 1,200 enterprise tablet PCs, ‘TR54’, for the ‘Jeju-type payment system’ advancement project.
The Jeju-type payment system advancement project promoted by Jeju Island is the first project in Korea to simultaneously implement the bus fare direct payment function using contactless credit cards and the advancement of QR code-based immediate payment (QR Pay). It is cooperating with global payment companies such as Alipay and WeChat Pay, and aims to establish a payment infrastructure for domestic and international tourists.
Point Mobile plans to supply 1,200 TR54 units to KSNET and RM Tech, the consortium participants of this project, through major domestic information and communication distributors. In the future, the payment infrastructure will be expanded to include tourism facilities and small business sectors. Starting with this supply, it is expected that similar-sized orders will continue to expand.
The enterprise tablet PC TR54 being supplied this time is a high-performance product with various strengths such as ▲11-inch FHD display ▲45° angle barcode scanner ▲Android 15 operating system ▲IP65 dustproof/waterproof ▲durability to withstand 1.2/1.5m drops, etc. It boasts excellent performance not only in public transportation but also in outdoor payment environments.
With these product features, we plan to expand into various fields such as warehouse inventory management using barcode scanners, installation on forklifts, delivery management, public management, medical, Mini POS, restaurant order management, and installation on police vehicles.
RM Tech, one of the companies participating in this Jeju-type payment system improvement project, is actively pursuing a plan to supply a payment system utilizing Point Mobile’s TR54 to other regions, starting with Jeju city buses. The company explains that there is a high possibility that it will expand to a nationwide project in the future.
A company official explained, “Point Mobile has entered the simple payment infrastructure market following the Japanese automobile diagnosis market based on the industry-specific customization technologies it has accumulated so far,” and “As TR54 is a product that satisfies the technological level required by the Jeju-type payment system, we expect that demand for payment infrastructure expansion will increase in the future.”
Meanwhile, Jeju Island achieved meaningful results by being the first and only in Asia to introduce a QR code payment system for bus fares in August last year. Over the seven months since its introduction, over 240,000 foreign tourists have used it, and an average of 1,135 people per day have used Jeju buses using QR code payments.
