Ingenico LANE 3600

Ingenico LANE 3600 – a compact PIN pad that speeds up service at the checkout

The Ingenico LANE 3600 is a checkout PIN pad designed to work with sales systems in retail and service outlets. A physical keypad, a colour display and support for every popular payment method mean transactions are handled smoothly even at the busiest times of day. The device is available from just PLN 1 net per month.

Intended use and usage scenarios

The Ingenico LANE 3600 payment terminal works best anywhere there is a fixed checkout station integrated with a POS system.

In grocery stores and retail chains, its durable construction easily handles hundreds of operations a day, while the wired Ethernet connection eliminates the risk of losing connectivity mid-transaction.

Restaurants and cafés will appreciate tip handling and the cashier login function – each member of staff can process payments under their own account, which simplifies end-of-shift settlements.

Doctors’ surgeries, hair salons and service points gain a professional tool for accepting contactless and BLIK payments, which builds customer trust and shortens service times.

The LANE 3600 also proves its worth in customer service offices and at reception desks, where the stability of a wired connection and compact dimensions (167 × 82 × 40 mm at a weight of just 227 g) have a direct impact on the ergonomics of the workstation.

Key business benefits

The physical keypad is a feature every operator working in gloves or serving older customers will appreciate – entering a PIN is sure and fast, and the risk of mistakes drops to a minimum.

The colour QVGA display presents amounts and transaction messages clearly, which shortens each operation and reduces complaints caused by misunderstandings. The secure Ingenico LANE 3600 payment terminal meets PCI PTS 6.x certification requirements and supports contactless, chip and magnetic stripe payments as well as Apple Pay, Google Pay and BLIK – the customer chooses the method that suits them and you never lose a sale.

The Ethernet connection guarantees stable, uninterrupted connectivity, independent of Wi-Fi signal quality or mobile network coverage – which matters especially in large retail premises, where wireless networks can be overloaded. The ability to integrate with many checkout and sales systems means the PIN pad works seamlessly with the POS software you already have, with no costly replacement of infrastructure.

Importantly, the payment terminal is available from just PLN 1 net per month, and under the Polska Bezgotówkowa Programme you can get it practically free of charge for 12 months.

A wide range of additional services

The LANE 3600 is about more than accepting card payments. The device supports cashback – withdrawing cash while making a purchase – which is a convenient service for customers and an extra advantage for your point of sale.

A DCC function is also available, allowing foreign customers to pay in their card’s currency – an ideal solution for shops and venues in tourist destinations.

Support for instalment payments, prepaid cards, MOTO transactions (mail order and telephone order) and mobile phone top-ups means that a single compact device replaces several separate tools.

The multi-merchant function makes it possible to serve several retail outlets on one PIN pad, which is practical in shopping centres or shop-in-shop locations, for example. All of these services work as part of the integration with the checkout system, so implementation requires no complicated configuration on the hardware side.

The verdict

The Ingenico LANE 3600 is a solid choice for any bricks-and-mortar point of sale that needs a reliable PIN pad integrated with the till at an attractive price. If you are looking for a secure payment terminal with a full range of payment methods and a rich list of additional services, this model will meet your expectations from just PLN 1 net per month.
