Cash terminals enabling persons with visual disabilities to make payments independently

In 2023, Adyen N. V. – a leading company in financial technology, headquartered in Amsterdam – began building the Accessible Payment Terminal Audio Solution as a standard on its hardware. In alignment with the European Accessibility Act (EAA), it ensures non-visual access to all key screens on the payment terminals, including presenting (credit) cards, tipping, PIN entry, and currency conversion. By 2025, this feature had been implemented on 7,000+ terminals and was available to be enabled on 410,000+ devices worldwide based on merchant readiness.
