When to consider a wireless EFTPOS terminal for your Business
Choosing the right EFTPOS Machine for your business can be a difficult task, especially for new merchants that are not entirely sure of their requirements. When looking at a wireless EFTPOS terminal for your business it is important to consider such factors as how and where you plan to sell, what is expected in your particular industry and how the type of services your business offers dictates how your customers will expect to be able to pay. Smartpay suggests that merchants consider;
Obviously if you are a merchant that operates a mobile business you will require a wireless EFTPOS terminal not reliant on a fixed line telephone or internet connection. A mobile EFTPOS terminal that operates over the Telstra mobile network will allow you to take a payment wherever your business operates.
Taking payment over the phone (
MOTO Transactions) does mean you won’t have to provide a terminal to every staff member on the road and potentially reduces costs. However it will increase the potential risk of chargebacks and require additional documentation to apply. Taking payment while your staff are on site and face to face with customers means that merchants have can have greater peace of mind when they have sighted the customer and their card before taking payment, which subsequently reduces the risk of taking a fraudulent payment.

Does your business have existing communication infrastructure or will it need to be installed?
Most
countertop terminals require some form of connectivity to process a transaction, whether it is a telephone line or internet connection, or simply the power cable. However, unless your business requires internet to function or you have a spare phone line being lightly used (such as a fax), it will actually cost more in internet and line rental. This is because a mobile solution is only an extra $10 a month against the
countertop solution whereas line rental and internet can run as much as $30-40 a month for coverage or each additional telephone line.
-
Does your business have limited counter space?
Many traditional bricks and mortar merchants are limited in their counter space real estate. In some cases access to infrastructure is available but the additional wires require too much room or possibly the space is too valuable as a product display. Where space is tight, a wireless EFTPOS terminal is perfect, as the merchant can store their terminal under their counter, save space, avoid clutter and better utilise the last space a customer will see in your store until it is needed.
