Westpac – Get Started

Westpac Presto Smart

Why choose Presto Smart?

Presto Smart is our new integrated payment solution, designed to make in-store payments easy by directly connecting a range of point of sale (POS) systems1 to your payment terminal — taking away the hassle of manually keying in transactions in to your payment terminal and speeding up sales at check out.

Presto Smart is a compact and lightweight EFTPOS terminal, letting you take payments anywhere in-store – on the counter or on the sales floor, giving you back time to do what you do best, running your business.

Take payments anywhere in store

Let customers pay at the counter, on the sales floor or at the table, split the bill with ease (POS dependent)
Fast payments, simple reconciliation & instant settlement2
No more manual typing of payment amounts in to your merchant terminal, fuss-free end-of-day reconciliation and immediate access to your funds with instant settlement.

Stable and reliable

On certain terminals, Presto Smart will automatically switch over to 3G3 should your main communication method drop out so you never miss a sale.

Easy to set up, easy to use

Presto Smart is easy to set up and get started and intuitive for you and your team to use.11 We also have you covered with 24/7, Australian-based technical support.

POS Integration

Presto Smart seamlessly connects to a range of POS solutions1, helping you to streamline payment processes for your business.

We’ve collaborated with Assembly Payments to power the connection with their integration software, and to create a more intuitive and streamlined payment solution than we’ve had before.

How it works

Presto Smart seamlessly integrates with a range of POS systems, saving you time at checkout, making in store payments fast and end of day reconciliations easier. 

But this is only the beginning. Through Presto, we want to continue to improve our payments and cash flow solutions for Australian businesses.  Our vision is to provide multi-channel payment capabilities which will allow merchants to view, settle and reconcile transactions – all on the one payment solution.
