Other services
- Connection of a terminal to a cash register – an integrated solution will be implemented in co-operation with the supplier of the cash processing system
- Creation of a “paired” account configuration – according to your accounting department’s requirements for electronic payments (data from the bank’s authorisation centre, data from the cash processing system). Accounting is simplified, work reduced.
- Monitoring of payment transactions and payment statistics – in co-operation with the supplier of the cash processing system, we can provide very sophisticated configurations and analyses of all types of payments (cash as well as electronic).
- Inspection of POS terminals – self-testing & monitoring service. Terminals conduct self-checks and send the information to the monitoring centre, which assesses the possibility for the occurrence of a technical problem in the terminal. That means timely identification of glitches. Preventive repairs or replacement of the terminal eliminates electronic payment failures at the point of sale, increasing convenience for customers. This information can be accessed by the merchant’s IT specialists.
- Loyalty programme. The contracting partner can at any time expand the functionality of its UniCredit Bank terminals to accept loyalty or rewards cards, which represent a modern and efficient replacement for the much-favoured rewards vouchers. A single terminal enables merchants to accept payment cards as well as reward and loyalty cards. UCB offers participation in any of these programmes without additional expenses for operating terminals – the partner pays only for the services connected with the programme’s operation. Rewards and loyalty charge cards are effective instruments for increasing business turnover whatever the type or size of the point of sale
- Foreign currency POS terminals – accepting noncash payments also through payment cards denominated in EUR and USD with subsequent settlement of the transaction on your account without conversion
- Self-service parking and pay-at-the-pump petrol station machines and kiosks
- Cleaning cards (of magnetic and chip scanners) for POS terminals
