Integrated Payments is using an interface between your Cash Register and Credit Card Terminal. You may ask why would you want to do this? Well there are many great reasons that all save you money and provide faster customer service.
- If you are using a standalone credit terminal, you must input credit
transactions twice: once into the ECR and once at the credit terminal. Duplicate entries take more time, at the same time creating a situation where costly errors and fraud can take place. Transactions can be processed faster by simplifying the sales process and eliminating redundant entries.
- With the average loss of $1,762 per incident, merchants face greater
potential losses from employee theft and fraud than from shoplifting.* Most losses at the point of sale result from refund, discount and credit card abuse. Retail beverage and card/gift/novelty merchants are particularly vulnerable. In a common scheme, trusted employees issue credits to their own cards and the cards of their friends without any corresponding charges.
- Working with one device, you'll complete end-of-day reconciliation
faster, with fewer errors.
- A Integrated system prints both transaction and credit card receipts
