Miura Systems

What Miura Systems does

Miura Systems Ltd. (operating as Miura Pay) is a UK-headquartered private company founded in 2008 that designs and supplies secure electronic payment hardware and the cloud-managed software platform that runs on it. The company targets four primary enterprise buyer segments: merchant acquirers, payment service providers (PSPs), independent software vendors (ISVs), and large multi-location enterprise merchants in retail, hospitality, financial services, government and healthcare. Its stated goal is to remove hardware complexity from payments and accelerate app deployment for these buyers.

The product portfolio spans three Android-based terminals — the Miura Pro (high-volume professional use), Miura Flex (ultra-portable mobile use), and Miura Solo (unattended self-service for kiosks, vending, ticketing, and EV charging) — plus two Linux terminals (M010, M020). Hardware is unified by the Enterprise Payments Platform, which provides cloud-based device management, remote app and firmware updates, and PCI-compliant payment acceptance across all major card and mobile wallets (Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, American Express, Maestro). The hardware-agnostic MPA software and Miura Ascend real-time monitoring/reporting layer sit on top, allowing the same application to run across multiple terminal types.

Miura monetizes through a mix of hardware sales, recurring platform subscriptions, software licensing (MPA), and professional integration services. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales with technology integration partnerships (NCR, NMI as core-tier partners; BCard, Fujitsu, Evri as secondary), supported by a partner portal and value-added reseller program. Global reach is claimed via international acquirers and PSPs, though the company does not disclose customer logos, revenue, or unit volumes. The last disclosed funding event was a $16M round from Molten Ventures in June 2015, with a related TempoCap investment that same month; no subsequent rounds appear in the input data.
