Problem

“Start by solving a simple problem.

Maybe their system isn’t appropriate for their business.”

Phone bill too high? Try countertop wireless, or Ethernet TCP/IP.

Receiving most of your payments away from the office? Consider a portable wireless payment device.

Are you mainly processing transactions over the phone or online? Look at the newest solutions for eCommerce using secure internet technology.

Do you operate more than one business? Multi-merchant applications will save time, money and counter space.

5.Multi-task

The best solutions give merchants

“a single access point to a variety of applications. ”

A few examples:

Gateway solutions enable merchants to view transactions in real-time from a variety of platforms.

Payment modules embedded in accounting software help merchants simultaneously invoice and process credit card payments.

Smart phones and netbooks paired with card readers give merchants a portable enterprise platform for their businesses.
