Maximize business sale value by minimizing disruption

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011

CenPOS minimizes disruption for businesses in transition. When you sell your business, the acquirer will open a new bank account, new merchant account, and new check processing account among other tasks. This creates major disruption for business continuity. But there is a way to avoid this if you are a CenPOS user.

CenPOS is a universal payment processing platform, enabling you to accept payments from multiple sources and connect to various processors. Part of business valuation is the ability to maintain continuity after the sale. CenPOS provides an infrastructure for payment acceptance that includes sales records, employee performance, channel performance, reconcilation, interchange optimization and risk mitigation. Automating processes is key for continuity and CenPOS delivers.

Here’s how easy it is:

  • If the seller agrees, the acquirer will enter into a new CenPOS agreement that provides the acquirer access to the existing CenPOS account and all it’s history, providing invaluable business insights for sales, HR, and marketing, as well as no disruption in daily sales procedures.  Up to 7 years CenPOS merchant data is available on demand.
  • If the seller agrees to the above, changing processors is as simple as updating account numbers in the CenPOS merchant administrator.  All operations continue as usual.
  • Note, if in a retail environment, when the acquirer changes credit card processors, all pin debit equipment must be injected with the new processor encryption key.

Ingenico Telium terminals approved for CenPOS

Friday, December 2nd, 2011

CenPOS, an innovative payment processing platform and gateway, now supports Ingenico Telium based terminals. The new Telium line replaces the popular Ingenico i3070 and i65xx, including the i6580, which are are approaching their end of life cycle.  The Telium based terminals support various forms of multimedia and have a vibrant display that can be used for flashing advertisements and other forms of messaging at the point of sale.

Looking forward to future payment acceptance methods, including NFC, the Telium series supports:

  • Smart card reader
  • Magnetic card reader
  • Contactless reader

CenPOS Supported Telium terminals:

ingenico ipp320/350 pin pad

The i6560 and i6580 are all-in-one terminals. The pin pad is built into the device. The pin pad is a separate device for this new solution. There are pro’s and con’s to the two piece, but in a busy retail environment, the benefits outweigh a single piece by far.

  • Every retailer can probably recall a time where their terminal pin encryption was blown due to power surge or other reasons. Because the injection can only be completed at an approved secure facility, this meant sending out their entire unit for a period of time for repair.  That’s an expensive asset to have out of commission. Now merchants can simply send the pin pad out for repair.
  • When a merchant changes payment processors, they need a different pin injection. The two piece solution enables merchants to send out the pin pads for injection without shutting down operations, providing more long term flexibility.

CenPOS vs. Authorize.net education payment gateway solution

Monday, November 14th, 2011

This graphic table illustrates some of the key differences of CenPOS vs Authorize.net. Using a Catholic High School for items needed, CenPOS crushes the gateway competition and it’s easy to see why schools are flocking to CenPOS.

CenPOS vs. Authorize.net education payment gateway

There’s no question that Authorize.net is a solid product from a reputable company. I’ve actually recommended and used them for over a decade. However, for years they failed to innovate and CenPOS provides better value in every key area, including automated recurring billing. Authorize.net only just entered the multi-payment source market, primarily through acquisition and tying different products together, whereas CenPOS was designed from the ground up to support all payment methods. This is key to why CenPOS is much more flexible to be customized and deliver real-time data that merchants  need to increase efficiencies in operations.
