Challenge
|
| Replacing or converting legacy Point-of-Sale (POS) systems is not always an option for smaller independant merchants with reliable existing equipment. In addition to the cost of a complete IP POS system, retailers want to avoid disruptions caused by complex installations and the costs of retraining staff. On the other hand, limitations of existing cash registers, such as a lack of additional serial ports, can make converting existing systems difficult. The need remains for these merchants to integrate existing equipment to realize faster transactions and cost-savings. |
Solution
|
| Precidia's IP access devices provide simple serial and dial to IP conversion that enables merchants to easily connect legacy POS equipment to IP networks. From payment terminals, to check card readers, scanners, scales or coupon readers, a Precidia device can provide the 'missing link' to a completely integrated POS system. With no additional hardware or software requirements, Precidia's POSConnect and Remote Access products offer cost-effective IP capability to legacy POS equipment. |
