Purpose
This module enables credit and debit card payments in your practice.
Features
Integrated Card Payments is sold independently of the EXACT system by Henry Schein.
Default terminal:
...
- Quick, convenient, and digital.
- More reliable than cheque payments, which are planned to be phased out in the near future (some retailers already refuse cheques as a payment method).
- Integration with EXACT system increases practice efficiency.
- Facilitates an integrated accounting solution and consolidates financial reporting.
- Reduces the risk of errors made by practice staff when keying in fees.
- Simple, understandable payment workflow.
...
- Single data entry (with a non-integrated system practitioners would need to enter data in both the leased hardware and the EXACT Payment Management System, which exposes two points of possible human error).
- Fewer mistakes in entering an amount, a card or a number.
- Fewer costs incurred from backing out of erroneous transactions.
- No need to run duplicate reconciliation reports (with a non-integrated system transactions and reconciliations are time-consuming, and multiple end-of-day reports need to be printed and compared so that mistakes can be fixed).
- Faster transactions authorisation (5 seconds compared to the non-integrated 30 seconds).
- Practitioners can process payments from any computer on the network.
- For Card Not Present transactions, practitioners can type in card numbers from any computer on the network.
- Process transactions over the Internet rather than via the dedicated phone line that would be required for a terminal.
- Reduced support calls on reconciliations.
- Improved customer service through reduction of errors, faster service and the convenience of efficient card payments.
