(NASDAQ: NYAX) is a global fintech company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Herzliya, Israel. The company focuses on unattended and automated points of sale—settings where customers pay without an on-site cashier—such as vending machines (snacks, drinks, coffee, ice cream, and other items), amusement and kiddie rides, laundromats, car washes, parking facilities, fueling-related kiosks, public restrooms, photo booths, donation points, and ticketing machines.
At a business level, Nayax operates as an end-to-end provider that combines (1) payment acceptance hardware, (2) connected-device telemetry, and (3) software/management services. This structure allows operators and venue owners to not only accept card and contactless payments, but also to monitor machine status, performance, and operational data remotely—reducing downtime and improving day-to-day control of distributed fleets. Financially, the model is typically driven by a mix of device deployments and ongoing software/service enablement, with value created as machines become “connected” and managed via Nayax’s platform.
Product-wise, Nayax offers a portfolio of payment terminals and smart devices tailored to different unattended and semi-attended environments. Examples highlighted in the provided overview include: VPOS TOUCH (contactless and traditional contact payment), VPOS FUSION (cashless card reader), and ONYX (contactless payment capability integrated with telemetry). For smart POS applications, the company offers NOVA-series solutions such as handheld and Android-powered terminals (e.g., NOVA 156, NOVA 125 with built-in printer and barcode scanner, and NOVA 55 that supports multiple payment methods including swipe, contactless, contact, and options such as digital wallets). Smaller handheld mini terminals (e.g., NOVA 45 and NOVA 40) support attended POS contexts.
Beyond hardware, Nayax provides telemetry services and management software to support remote monitoring and control of automated machines. The platform is designed to integrate with unattended business operations and to enable operational visibility and management workflows. The company also supports cashless solutions such as closed-circuit prepaid card ecosystems, and it provides a consumer-facing digital application (Monyx Wallet) to facilitate mobile-based cashless payments. Additionally, Nayax has platform capabilities that extend to areas like EV charging stations and tools for marketing, loyalty, and consumer engagement—features that can help operators drive repeat usage.
From an implementation/cost perspective, the economics often reflect the combination of upfront device costs plus recurring service and connectivity/management value over time. For customers, the practical benefit is operational: a unified approach that streamlines payment acceptance and device management instead of requiring separate vendors for terminals, connectivity, and telemetry operations.
Leadership and governance are led by CEO and co-founder Yair Nechmad, who has served as CEO and Chairman since 2005.

Operator : Hello, everyone, and welcome to Nayax' Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. I will now turn the call over to Mr. Aaron Greenberg. Please go ahead, Aaron.
Aaron Greenberg : Thank you, operator, and everyone for joining us today on this conference call. With me on the call today are Yair Nechmad, Nayax's Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer; and Sagit Manor, Chief Financial Officer. Following management's prepared remarks, we will open the call for the question-and-answer session. Our press release and supplementary investor presentation are available on our Investor Relations website at ir.nayax.com. As a reminder, during this call, we'll be making forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements on our call today are based on assumptions and therefore, subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from those projected. We have no obligation to update these statements, except as required by law. You can read about these risks and uncertainties in our supplementary investor presentation released earlier today and our regulatory filings. In addition, today's call will include a discussion of non-IFRS measures. Management believes non-IFRS results are useful in order to enhance our understanding of our ongoing performance. However, these measures should be considered as a supplement to and not as a substitute for IFRS financial measures. A reconciliation between Nayax' non-IFRS to IFRS measures can be found in our earnings press release issued earlier today. All key performance indicators are intended to evaluate our business and properly measure factors in a macroeconomic environment to guide and support our decision-making. These key performance indicators may be calculated in a matter different from the industry standards. And finally, please note that all figures in today's call will be reported in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise. Yair will start the call with key financial and operational highlights. Following that, I will speak about some of our strategic initiatives in more detail. Finally, Sagit will go through the details of financial results and discuss the outlook. And with that, I would like to turn the call over to Nayax's CEO, Yair Nechmad. Yair?
