Case Study: Felix Payment Systems Ltd. secures SoftPOS payments and achieves PCI compliance with Zimperium

Felix Payment Systems secures SoftPOS solution with In-App Protection

Felix Payment Systems Ltd. is an international payments and product development firm (Felix.Terminal and Felix.Cloud) that needed to turn consumer Android phones into secure SoftPOS terminals without costly card readers or dongles. The company required stronger protection for sensitive payment data and cryptographic keys, tamper- and reverse-engineering resistance, secure communication between app and cloud, and adherence to card‑brand and PCI security requirements—so it engaged Zimperium to address these challenges.

Zimperium implemented its zShield application‑shielding and zKeyBox white‑box cryptography across Felix.Terminal and Felix.Cloud, embedding obfuscation, integrity checks, and protected key handling to prevent extraction or tampering. The deployment enabled PCI DSS compliance, secured end‑to‑end transactions, delivered proactive tamper detection, and saved Felix Payment Systems Ltd. hundreds of development hours while speeding market acceptance; the SoftPOS now runs live pilots in Canada, the UK and Australia under Zimperium’s protection.
