Contactless only. No chip slot, no magnetic stripe — which is a deliberate choice for unattended sites, because a card slot is a thing that jams, fills with rubbish and gets tampered with.
At 120 x 133 x 50mm it is built into a charger, a locker or a kiosk. PAX names EV charging as the lead use case, which is where most of the growth in Australian unattended payments currently is.
What it costs
The rate you pay is negotiated on your volume and card mix, not set by the terminal — two businesses on the same IM28 can be paying very different money. Find out what yours should be.
