Deliver a shopping experience second-to-none by offering cell phone point of sale (POS) options to facilitate payments for a product or service. Wireless point of sale (POS) devices make mobile credit card processing smoother than ever before.
With a mobile POS, your business can confirm a customer’s ability to pay, while eliminating the lengthy process sometimes associated with completing credit transactions at a credit card terminal.
No additional devices are required, other than a cell phone, to make and complete a credit card transaction. Customers can pay using major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. Then, the transaction receipt is immediately processed and delivered via email.
Currently, all major cell phone carriers are a part of this phenomenon. Mobile commerce is not just limited to the iPhone. Now hundreds of mobile phones are compatible with the latest POS applications.
Cell phone POS providers are required to adhere to the highest payment security standards, so safety is not an option. It is a requirement. Therefore, personal information is encrypted prior to being released by the cell phone signal. In addition, none of the customer information is left on the phone device itself.
Most mobile POS providers allow you to use your current cell phone and calling plan. However, it only cost pennies per transaction to use the pay-as-you-go option if no calling plan is already established.
The activation process is quick and easy.
1. Set up a merchant account by contacting Visa, MasterCard, and Discover directly.
2. Then you will need to contact the cell phone POS provider of your choice, to make sure they have an application for your particular phone and service provider.
3. After purchasing your new mobile POS application, your receipt will have printable installation instructions, and you will receive a text message containing a link to download your new POS application.
Mobile POS software updates are done automatically, thereby eliminating the expense associated with product upgrades. In addition, voice-to-text features, and reverse phone look-up are some of the many mobile benefits allowing businesses to stay in touch with customers.
