Replace a Sponsor Certificate
A sponsor may need to clear the current sponsor certificate from a terminal so that
a new sponsor can load certificates and applications. To do this, the original
sponsor must order a “clear” smart card from the VeriFone CA. The clear smart
card is specific to the requesting sponsor. It restores a deployment terminal to the
development state (refer to Figure 28) by:
Deleting the current sponsor and signer certificates from the terminal’s
application partition.

NOTE
The process for replacing a signer certificate is the same as replacing a sponsor
certificate.
