Betel

Accelerate EMVCo C-8 transition without hardware dependencies.

Betel is a cloud-based terminal simulator that helps payment stakeholders identify field issues, debug rapidly, and reduce costs across the certification lifecycle.

Built for distributed teams, Betel enables you to replicate contact and contactless terminal behavior and run EMV transactions remotely across POS, ATM, and SoftPOS environments, all from your browser.

Whether you are an acquirer, issuer, processor, scheme, terminal vendor, or merchant, Betel simplifies the collection of real-time transaction logs. It avoids the time spent on terminal shipping, issue identification, and reproduction.

With EMVCo C-8 becoming the new global standard for contactless payments, Betel's multi-kernel architecture enables seamless validation, debugging, and transition between legacy and C-8 profiles.

Challenges

Betel tackles the technical and operational challenges faced by acquirers, processors, schemes, and merchants in isolating and reproducing bugs in the exact terminal environment, including kernel, issuer response, and host integration.  

It removes the need for physical device management, reducing both certification and QA timelines while enabling parallel testing and faster collaboration.

Addresses all the test challenges that the acquirer, issuer, processor, scheme, terminal vendor, or merchant would face:

  • Payment teams are linked to physical hardware that needs constant shipping and logistics management
  • Reproducing and debugging issues takes forever, slowing down the entire process
  • There's little to no real-time visibility into what's happening during transactions
  • Transitioning to the newly released EMVCo C-8 and validating new kernels adds layers of complexity
  • Teams spread across different geographies are finding it difficult to collaborate effectively
  • Certification and QA drag on for months, delaying go-to-market
