Verisave Merchant Services Review: Vend POS

Vend POS Solutions For Retailers Processing Credit and Debit Card Payments

Vend offers merchants a cloud-based POS system coupled with inventory management tools through a wireless smart device. Their services are built primarily for retailers. You can set up a laptop, desktop, or handheld smart device to accept payments and access reports with or without an internet connection. Devices must be capable of running Windows 7 or Mac OS X 10.5 (or higher).

Vend is known for being extremely user-friendly, allowing most anyone to comfortably learn their system and have very little problems with integration. The intuitive software is simple to learn and offers lots of information for making informed decisions when it comes to business management and inventory.

Verisave works with CFO’s, senior financial executives, controllers, and accounts payable teams to reduce the amount of fees spent each month on credit card processing. It’s a complex system that starts with your POS device and provider and works its way through gateways, processors, banks, and more. Having an expert from Verisave on your team will help you to decide on the best set-up for accepting payments, processing credit cards, and structure your merchant accounts.

Understanding the players in the credit card processing industry and the fees they charge can help you make better decisions and reduce your fees. In order to optimize your merchant processing and minimize fees, you should consider engaging an auditing firm.

Products & Services Offered by Vend

Retailers benefit from allowing their customers to pay using debit and credit cards, but figuring out which POS system to use can be a bit daunting with all the options available. Vend has a wide host of tools incorporated with their POS system and as a widely liked and user-friendly POS device, we are happy to recommend Vend to our clients. When it comes to accepting credit and debit card payments, Vend offers the following tools and services:

When It Comes To Processing Credit Card Payments, Vend Offers Merchants The Following Solutions:

VEND POS SOLUTIONS – Retailers have access to a lot of tools with a Vend POS system. With or without an internet connection, you can accept payments. Vend will resync your sales once you get your device back online. Create custom receipts, save notes to track discounts and other transaction details, refund past orders, give store credit, create individual staff accounts to track POS usage, manage and track cash transactions, and more.

VEND E-COMMERCE SOLUTIONS – This solution is not included with Vend’s free services. But with a subscription service, you can have access to their e-commerce tools. You’ll have access to an integrated website builder, pre-built design themes, syncing capability with your store’s inventory, and hosting. The one downside we’ve noticed to their e-commerce solution is the requirement to tie your domain name to their domain name for their shopping cart services. However, this protects you from liability issues and PCI compliance.

VEND HARDWARE OPTIONS – If you opt to use Vend services, you can use their software on hardware you already own. Their software only requires Windows 7 or Mac OS X 10.5 (or higher). You can also purchase hardware through Vend. They offer three different bundles.
