Holidays are the best example of when your staff needs to be able to communicate quickly. For an increasing number of folks, email is the quickest way to communicate with the “connected” world. At the click of a button at Point of Sale, your staff can send an email to anyone on your staff directly from Point of Sale. This saves steps, and assures a limited access to emails, which can be very counter-productive and compromise your security and solvency.
Users can easily send emails to any or all staff members from a “Quick Key” at the register using any secure email application. This allows your staff the ability to send emails even to a limited number of people directly from Point of Sale. Even associates that are unfamiliar with computers or email programs can operate this easy to use defaulted email template.
Allowing in-bound emails at any Point of Sale computer processing credit cards (even if using the newest Point to Point Encryption technologies) is limited by the PCI – Data Security Standards. Logically, emails and unsecured Internet browsing are the two main sources of viruses and compromises to your network security. Merchant Plus! allows you to bypass this risk but still provide a convenient way to stay in touch with your team in a controlled manner.
Client Setup Instructions:
Current clients simply need to add the “Send User Email” function to a point of sale menu using Quick Key Maintenance, add email addresses (work and/or home) for each desired user in Username Maintenance, and make sure the email is setup correctly in System Properties. Then just click on the button and start emailing!
Of course you can always call our support team who will be happy to walk you through this simple setup!
