In addition, the receipts are completely different. They have a barcode now and the layout is different. It contains more info about the payment. Entry method is still nowhere to be found though.
Interesting. The Whole Foods near where I work uses the IBM 4690 system, and has Ingenico pin pads, that are shaped similarly to the VeriFone MX915. Apple Pay works on those Ingenico pads.
