- Other Important Point of Sale Information
Integrated Cashless Payment Point of Sale
- Cashless payments are essential to begin offering faster checkout times to employees and staff, and it is important to integrate these solutions so they can make automatic adjustments to your sales and inventory data.
- We offer these integrated cashless payment solutions, in addition to cashless employee payments in the form of payroll deductions (ArbaRapidPay).
- ArbaRapidPay allows staff to use their ID badges to complete retail or foodservice purchases with funds taken from their paychecks. We integrate these payments within the back office for ease of reporting your employee sales.
Contactless POS Automation
- There are many contactless solutions for retail which mostly include the use of online ordering software for staff and customers.
- This allows them to utilize a web-based URL held on a public or private site that allows cashless payments, and even ArbaRapidPay transactions. These are integrated into your database to adjust your sales and inventory data. Online ordering is also available for foodservice locations as well.
- Self-service kiosks are utilized by almost all quick service providers, especially in employee cafeterias or other food service providers.
- Utilizing a standalone terminal to select food items, staff, and customers can then complete payments using cashless payment software or ArbaRapidPay, allowing for a fully contactless experience. We also integrate these payments within your POS database.
Other Important Point of Sale Information
- Our cloud-based POS software which runs on Microsoft Azure allows managers to obtain improved data security measures, in addition to being able to access their data using any device from any location.
- Local offline selling enables retail and foodservice locations to continue their sales operations even in the event of a lost internet connection. Managers may then upload their sales and inventory data directly to their database, saving them from losing out on revenue for the period.
- Another great addition to retail and foodservice operations is utilizing mobile POS tablets. These have multiple purposes including speeding up your physical inventory process with a centralized location to manage on-hand quantities and selling operations in the form of line-busting during busy operating hours.
These universal point of sale enhancements enable a fully integrated software solution for both retail and foodservice locations. It is important to incorporate automation within your operations to incorporate a cost-effective solution that incentivizes customers, increases participation, and includes many fail-safe protocols.
