# Cloud EMV

Our semi-integrated Cloud EMV solution is a unified, cloud-based payment integration that enables point-of-sale (POS) systems to support a variety of payment devices, delivering a smoother payment experience.

Embed our [Cloud EMV APIs](https://docs.xplorpay.com/api-reference/payments/cards/transaction-emv) into your platform without managing [Payment Card Industry (PCI) DSS Compliance](https://docs.xplorpay.com/security-solutions/pci-compliance#what-is-pci-dss) or undergoing lengthy [Europay, Mastercard, and Visa (EMV) Security certifications](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMV#EMV_certificates). When you integrate using the [Cloud EMV API](https://docs.xplorpay.com/api-references/payments/cards/transaction-emv), you don’t need separate integrations for each payment terminal.

For more information about payment terminals, see the [Devices](https://docs.xplorpay.com/getting-started/devices) page.
