Device Set Up

Apps

The PAXStore and PAXInject apps must both be on the device. If these apps are not on the device, you will need to contact the device distributor or your PAX reseller partner.

Encryption & Injection

Prior to the terminal being shipped to the PAX reseller partner, it should be injected with the BridgePay Encryption (test or production) key in Slot 2 and the PIN key of the partner’s choice (if required) in Slot 1 by the KIF (key injection facility) or vendor of the partner’s choice.

✔ BridgePay Encryption key in Slot 2
✔ PIN key in Slot 1

Note: Regardless of the slot number, inject the PIN key in the very first slot and inject the P2PE key in the second slot. Terminals intended for use in production must be injected with the Production BridgePay P2PE key. Terminals intended for use in UAT must be injected with the Test BridgePay P2PE key. Please reach out to Integrations or Gateway support for key information.

For example, if the HSM starts slot count from 0, then inject PIN into the slot 0 and P2PE into slot 1. If HSM starts count from 1, then inject PIN into slot 1 and P2PE into slot 2.

To verify the injected keys in a terminal please contact your reseller or PAX Support @ paxstore.support@pax.us

If your terminal is missing a key, or it is an incorrect key, PAX can remote key inject (or RKI) the BridgePay Encryption key (test and production); however, the PIN key cannot be injected remotely by PAX. Email RKISupport@PAX.us with the device serial number and the name of the key to be injected. There is a nominal cost billed by PAX to the reseller partner for this service. Additionally, your device distributor may have RKI capabilities, so check with your distributor for more information.

Depending on the model of the terminal you have, the default settings password on the device is one of the following:

9876
9876@@
pax9876@@
