Verifone have extended the life of the VX range of devices through to 2026. Although these units can longer be purchased, support will be continued for those out in the field.
Verifone Vx820 & Vx680 – P2PE extension.
PCI-DSS, PCI-POI, PCI-PTS, PCI-P2PE
Verifone have extended the service and support of these devices through to April 2026 with a renewed accreditation of the P2PE certification. This update supersedes the statement previously released stating an April 2023 end date. Verifone will now continue support for swap outs*, the P2PE accreditation, plus any critical security updates through to April 2026.
All Gladstone supplied PEDs use Verifone PAYware Ocius.
PCI PTS level 4 or above is still the recommended version. However, the PCI counsel has not issued a mandate/notice for removal of level 3 devices from service. As such, you can continue using these PEDs until such notice is given. We would suggest checking with your acquirer to investigate any potential restrictions they may have chosen to adopt with these level 3 devices.
Verifone are currently impacted by the global shortage of chip sets caused by the pandemic, which has had an impact on global supply availability of the level 5 PED solution. Gladstone are working with Verifone to forecast and secure stock, and as such we are also working on a new range of Level 6 + PEDS to deploy & integrate.
Please contact your account manager to discuss future PED requirements.
*Please note that this is dependent on availability of spare parts.

In recognition of the dynamic nature of the software industry, Gladstone upholds the policy of continuous evolution in software solutions to mitigate risks and ensure sustained success.
Why does Gladstone believe in continually evolving its product offering?
- Security Threats: Aging software is susceptible to security vulnerabilities, exposing clients and our company to cyber threats. Continuous evolution enhances security measures, mitigating risks associated with outdated technologies.
- Technological Progression: The pace of technological innovation is relentless. New frameworks, languages and methodologies emerge regularly, offering enhanced capabilities and efficiency. By evolving our software solutions, we harness the latest advancements to deliver superior products that meet evolving user expectation.
- Enhanced User experience: User preferences and behaviours evolve over time, demanding more intuitive, responsive, and feature-rich software. By embracing continuous evolution, we aim to increase user satisfaction, foster engagement, and cultivate long-term customer loyalty.
- Competitive Edge: In a fiercely competitive market, Gladstone understands that Leisure Operators need to stay ahead of the curve. Continuous evolution enables Gladstone to differentiate our offerings, seize new opportunities, and outperform competitors.
How does Gladstone ensure continued supportability of its software?
- Frequent updates to all cloud-native products: Gladstone believe that cloud-native software solutions offer a unique opportunity to continually evolve software with minimum disruption and risk for Leisure Operators. Gladstone commits to regularly releasing new features and critical performance and technology updates to it’s Gladstone Go platform.
- Providing Leisure Operators with a transition plan: Wherever possible Gladstone will identify an upgrade path for older technologies and will inform Leisure operators of the recommended upgrade path.
- Sunsetting of older technologies: While we strive to offer long-term support for our products, Gladstone commits to responsibly phasing out support for obsolete products, while providing ample transition support and resources to affected stakeholders.
A product/technology may become obsolete for many reasons – e.g. new security requirements, or advancements in technology that render older versions less efficient or secure.
When a product approaches its technological limits, Gladstone’s focus shifts to developing newer, more advanced capabilities and providing a transition path for Leisure operators to upgrade. As such, Gladstone reserves the right to sunset older technologies and guide operators towards a revised service offering. Upon retirement or end of support, there will be no new security updates, non-security updates, free or paid assisted support options or online technical content updates.
Gladstone typically aims to provide at least one year's notice of any forthcoming changes. However, should external factors, such as security concerns or other issues impacting the application’s viability, arise, this timeline may need to be shortened accordingly.
