Debit Transaction Services

The signature Lynk service, LynkEdge, is "direct" or "online" debit, which prompts for and requires a personal identification number (PIN) for authorization. Lynk simply offers the best service available in terms of network coverage, routing and availability.

Drawing on its depth of experience in on-line electronic bank networks and ATM processing, Lynk pioneered on-line point-of-sale debit applications and has incorporated this functionality along with credit into all of its terminal applications, consistent with its goal of providing true single source service.

The pinned debit option can be a surprising money-saver. "Debit," as promoted by Visa and MasterCard (i.e., the Visa "Check" card) is actually a credit transaction with a corresponding discount rate, like standard credit transactions. Because most of these "off-line" cards are also ATM cards with personal identification numbers, and because Lynk has integrated both credit and on-line (or "PInned") debit into its terminal applications, a Lynk terminal presented with a check card can be programmed to process the transaction on a lower-cost on-line basis.

Lynk can offer one or all of the following card types directly on a single terminal:

• ACCEL/XCHG
• AFFN
• ALASKA OPTION
• INTERLINK
• MAESTRO
• MPACT
• NYCE
• PULSE
• QUEST (EBT)
• SHAZAM
• STAR
• TYME
