Here’s what I’ve found out.
Zipato is a Croatian company that makes a SmartThings type multi protocol hub. They have rebranded the keypad, which is actually made by BeNext, a Dutch company.
The keypad is certified by the Z Wave Alliance only for Europe. (Europe and the U.S. have different zwave frequencies. The U.S. frequency starts with 9, Europe with 8.)
The conformance statement for the european certification says it will self identify as a entry control device, which most zwave controllers identify as a door lock.
zipato has a U.S. distributor, Home Controls, Inc. They’re the ones selling through Amazon. Their spec sheet says the one they sell is broadcasting on the U.S. frequency, but you’d need to check each device to be sure you got the right one.

Vera sells both a U.S. and a European version of their controller. After looking briefly at their forums, the only people I saw who said they had this keypad working were Europeans. (Probably not coincidentally, the community tutorial there for the device is in French.)
Even so, most people reporting there can’t get the key fobs to work as described unless they live in Europe and are using the zipato hub.
Bottom line:
Zwave certified for Europe, but not the US.
If purchasing for use in the US, verify that you have the U.S. hardware, not Europe (radio frequency starts with 9, not 8)
It should use the entry control device class, which will probably pair as a doorlock.
I’m not sure ST provides any way to process input from the keyfob.
If anyone gets it working, let us know.
