Discount Credit Card Supplies is the Amazon seller I purchased from. Everything arrived quickly and exactly as described. My processing company is Vantiv and it was very simple to set this machine up with them. I will say that I tried to be cheap and ordered from ebay and two other businesses first bc it was half the price. The one from eBay was refurbished and cost around $40. It broke after 2 weeks. The other two companies cost around $70, but neither have even shipped the machine yet even though it's been almost 2 weeks. On top of that, I haven't received any updates from either company. I couldn't wait any longer, obviously, so I went ahead and paid the higher price on Amazon for a new credit card machine and decided I would keep whichever machine arrived first. The winner was the Amazon seller. I don't know how much money I lost the past couple of weeks trying to be cheap.

We've tried over and over again to get this connected via either Ethernet or phone lines and after 7 total hours dedicated to try to reconfigure and troubleshoot...both with merchant services and ATT; we have to conclude that it's this terminal itself. Something is defective. Connection error is listed each time. I've spent a total of $300-400 equivalent waisted hours on this unit.

What a deal! Machine works flawlessly with Evalon after the simple download walked through with their customer service. With the Ethernet connection it is super quick too. Save your money and buy this unit... As simple as that :)

Reliable. Working super fast with chip reading and only needing to swipe once. Most of the credit cards working fine accept some Master debit cards that required to enter PIN. There are reviews indicated that it missing encryption. Nevertheless, Visa debit cards working great without asking to enter PIN. Contacted Elavon twice and they willingly wiping then reinstall the software. Still having the problem with some master debit card. Contacted the seller and they indicated that it need to be injecting with encryption with a charge of $45. Should this injection be put on prior of shipping out to customers? You probably need to request the seller to do so prior of purchasing.In my case, every debit/credit cards working great accept some master debit card.

So far, so good. The tech at Elavon was able to guide me through the process to download the files for Elavon. It took a while for the files to download, even when connected to the internet. It took 2 tries, but it booted up with Elavon with no problems. I mentioned to my tech about using the Debit function, he looked and noted that debit was not listed on my account. I'm assuming that he would have been able to install that function if it was listed. There was a review by someone else who stated that Debit function required another keypad.I'm not certain, but in the manual (search google Verifone VX 520 Manual, see Page 33) it shows that Debit & credit functions are available.I will update if any issues.

After reading the reviews and questions, it makes it sound like you could activate this unit on Costco Elevon. This is NOT correct. Elevon stopped activating these units(actually all units) in Sept. 2016 that were not purchased from them. I'm pretty sure about this since I pushed them pretty hard with no budging. Their excuse is that potentially it could have a duplicator chip in them that could send out credit card numbers to the bad guys. In reality, it's a good excuse for them to make more money by selling the same unit for $480.

Nice unit, covers all the new EMV protocol, VeriFone is one of the top names in credit card processing equipment. Be sure of the exact model you are buying and that it will work with your cc processing company - Apparently, different version numbers of the VX520 vary by region. Also, be aware this is not a do it yourself setup of this equipment. I chose to buy my terminal, but I have a processor that was willing to set it up. First, they have to "build" a file with all your info.in it. Then your processor has to be willing to download the basic files, took 45 mins.via Ethernet and High Speed Internet and a ton of keyed in input by me following the technicians direction. After that, we downloaded the file they had put together or I.E. the application. All told I had about 2 hours of extremely tedious listening and key entry on the terminal to get it up and running. The other option is to simply buy or lease the terminal, pay the extra money this is going to cost you, have all this stuff pre-loaded, just hook it up in your facility. If I was doing it over again, I would probably do the latter.

This unit from Office Direct works perfect on the Costco Elavon System. Easy to program, Elavon was very happy to download the programs needed. As previously noted by others, if you need debit card function which we didn't pay the extra $ to have it done. Elavon wanted to charge us $370+ under a special Costco deal for the Vx520. The customer reps will try to talk you into their deal, the tech rep will help you anyway.
