Wincor Nixdorf Partnership
We are proud to announce our partnership with Wincor Nixdorf to provide entry solutions for automated cash handling at Point-of-Sale.
With a relationship dating back to 2013, our joint partnership across Europe aims to develop a number of entry cash handling solutions for point-of-sale payment solutions in the Retail Sector.
Sales Director, Tony Morrison said, “Wincor Nixdorf has an established, successful relationship with the Retail Industry, and a trusted global service and support network. By working in partnership we can offer unique, high quality point of sale solutions with a great customer value proposition.
We are proud to announce this partnership and look forward to providing new, innovative cash
handling solutions to the European Retail Sector.”
“We see a high demand among retailers for efficient cash automation solutions at the Point-of- Sale,” said Reinhard Meier, Global Head of Product line POS at Wincor Nixdorf. Our partnership allows Wincor Nixdorf to provide note and coin recycling solutions at an excellent priceperformance ratio- a solution that is particularly relevant for retailers with low to medium cash volumes at the point-of-sale that wish to introduce cash recycling, like convenience, fashion and small sized grocery stores.

Software Development Kit (SDK)
eSSP Software Development for Host Applications
Smiley Secure Protocol (SSP) - is the secure interface specifically designed by Innovative Technology to address problems experienced by cash handling systems. eSSP (encrypted SSP) adds an encryption layer using an AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm which uses a 128-bit key for an advanced level of security.
We have developed various Software Development Kits (SDK’s) to assist when implementing eSSP into kiosk, change machines, amusement or gaming applications. These comprehensive kits are available for the entire current ITL product range to ensure that integration is as rapid and straightforward as possible, even for those with limited programming experience.
All SDKs include libraries showing how to handle ports, negotiate encryption keys, construct packets and encrypt commands sent to the validator (encrypted or plain).
The SDKs contain full example source code showing the recommended way to interface with ITL products. The examples provided are tailored specifically to our product range to eliminate confusion and include demonstrations of interfacing with multiple units in one application.
All Windows SDK’s are provided as a Visual Studio 2010 project, however if an earlier version is required please contact us. Linux C++ libraries and example source code are also available. Full documentation is provided with the SDK outlining the process of implementing your software to communicate with ITL products and how to use the SDK’s libraries.
