Registered Identifier Number (10000 Terminal IDs)

We are the ISO recognised Numbering Authority for the UK and for overseas countries for the issuance of:

UK Register of Four Digit Registered Identifiers (Terminal IDs) 
This is used by point of sale terminal manufacturers for the construction of Terminal Identification numbers (TIDs).  The RID system enables a terminal manufacturer to uniquely identify 10,000 units on each RID.  The RID consists of two parts:

a) Registered Identifier (RID) – 4 digits - issued by the Registration Authority and entered on a Register kept by us.

b) Unit Identifier (UID) – 4 digits - assigned by the holder of the RID making the identification of an individual terminal unique and entered on a Register kept by you.

You will need this type of RID if you are implementing Standard 70.
