My terminal is asking for a 6-digit Access PIN

Once the Ackroo Anywhere application has been downloaded to your Ingenico or Verifone terminal, you may see a message on your terminal screen requesting a 6-digit terminal activation code.

NOTE: A unique PIN is required per individual debit terminal activation.
