German term or phrase: Maschinenschnittstelle
Produkt XXX ist eine Maschinenschnittstelle mit https-Interface. Sie empfiehlt sich sich z. B. beim Einsatz zwischengeschalteter Systeme (z. B. Warenwirtschaftssystem) oder für die Übertragung von Kartendaten, die anderweitig erfasst wurden.

From a manual for integrating credit card payments. Is there any way of avoiding using interface twice?

Explanation:
or: based on the htpps protocol, or even simply: using htpps.

As for Maschinenschnittstelle I'm not at all sure that the straightforward translation machine interface is suitable (as it's usually used in the context of human machine interface, HMI). Maybe equipment interface.
