Built for Real Business Scenarios
The Smart Terminal demonstrates that modern businesses operate far beyond traditional brick-and-mortar settings. The terminal’s design approach focuses on one core principle: removing friction from the checkout process while keeping businesses seamlessly connected and operational throughout the day.
Nic Beique, Founder and CEO of Helcim, said: “We didn’t want to just make a better payment device—we wanted a better experience for the people behind the counter. This terminal is faster, smarter, and built with intention. Every feature reflects merchant feedback. And like everything at Helcim, it comes with no long-term contracts or surprise fees.”
Impressive Technical Specifications
The Smart Terminal features hardware that truly delivers on speed and reliability. At its core is a powerful octa-core processor that enables rapid checkouts, eliminating frustrating wait times for customers. Its vibrant 6.7″ HD+ touchscreen makes for easy, intuitive use by both merchants and customers.
With built-in 4G and Wi-Fi, businesses can accept payments anywhere, anytime. The battery, lasting up to 12 hours, is ideal for long business days, mobile operations, and outdoor events. The integrated high-speed receipt printer simplifies payment setups, removing the need for extra hardware.
Beyond Payment Processing
What makes the Smart Terminal truly stand out is its integration with Helcim’s comprehensive business tools. Merchants can handle inventory, invoicing, customer management, and use the innovative Fee Saver feature, all directly on one device. This multi-functional approach turns the terminal from a basic payment processor into a complete operational hub.
Peter from Glen Cove Beer said, “The new Helcim Smart Terminal is simple to use and very fast!”

Transparent and Fair Pricing Model
Helcim’s commitment to clear and fair pricing continues with the Smart Terminal. Merchants have the choice of a one-time purchase or affordable monthly payments starting at $32 USD ($39 CAD) for 12 months. Importantly, merchants fully own their hardware, as there are no leases, lock-ins, or early termination fees often seen with other payment solutions.
Unlike many competitors, there are also no monthly fees, and Helcim’s pricing adapts based on your business’s monthly transaction volume, offering deeper discounts as your volume grows. This means small businesses can scale confidently, knowing they are getting the best available rates without worrying about hidden surcharges, long-term commitments, or setup fees.
This pricing model reflects Helcim’s dedication to supporting small businesses without the burden of hidden costs or restrictive agreements. It departs from industry standards that often tie merchants to unfavorable, long-term contracts.
Helcim’s Expanding Impact
The Smart Terminal launch strengthens Helcim’s reputation as a business-focused payments company. Helcim works with thousands of merchants across North America, processing billions in payments annually in more than 800 industries. This depth of experience guides their product evolution, ensuring solutions are developed with hands-on merchant feedback and real operational needs in mind, not just theoretical ideas.
The Smart Terminal signals more than just technological advancement; it demonstrates Helcim’s unwavering dedication to standing by merchants when it matters most. Whether your business faces connectivity hiccups, long lines, or technical hurdles, Helcim’s latest device is built to be a reliable partner you can count on.
