Web Terminals

Web Terminals are the logical next evolution of the classic physical terminals.  Rather than requiring an additional piece of physical hardware, the same functionality is offered on an Internet based application.  In other words, these are special websites with secure logins that are only available to authorized store clerks.  These offer a much richer visual and color experience that aren't possible on classic credit card type terminals.

Some benefits include:

• Rich color graphical user interface (GUI)

• Easier navigation

• Lower clerk learning curve

• Fast and easy to make updates

• Easily supports multiple wireless providers and programs

• Rich tracking, reporting, and analytics tools

• The one major downfall of web applications is that they can't support swipe activation of physical cards.  Card serial numbers can be manual entered, or scanned using a bar code, but the classic swipe and sell process is not supported.  

• This isn't really considered to be a major problem since this type of card sale has become less and less common/popular in non-large retailer stores.

• This process is virtually identical to the terminal experience.  The only real difference relates to the benefits of the web described above.

• This process is also virtually identical to the terminal experience, except, again as it relates to the advantages of web applications.
