New Applications For Wireless Devices

Monday, July 26, 2010 by Joshua B
Would your business benefit from the use of a mobile credit card terminal?  Retailers and restaurants are now applying this new technology to better serve their customer.  Products like the Nurit 8000, provided by North American Bancard, can help take your innovative idea for payment processing and make it a reality.

The ingenious applications for devices like this include on-the-spot payment for restaurants with outdoor seating, immediate payment and verification at mobile events like county fairs, farmers markets and more.  With North American Bancard's wireless solutions, you'll get access to our GPRS wireless network.  This provides you the essential network coverage you need to process debit and credit cards, quickly, no matter where business takes you.  The technology relies on cellular data service, so there are some areas where coverage does not exist.  Even in these instance, most wireless devices include a "store and forward" feature, which allows you to swipe the card and store the data for processing once the device reconnects to the network, or at a later time.  You'll never again have to do business without the ability to accept cards.

Visit our website or call 800-BANCARD for more details on our services and to find out how you can apply this technology to your business.
