Payments by Phone

While One source pos, Inc. offers excellent pos systems at a low price, we also understand that some businesses do not necessarily benefit from advanced pos equipment. For these businesses, the stress and related costs of using standard pos systems are not optimal for their company. Luckily, there is an alternate method available: payments by phone! With these systems, the seller can “call in” a sale, complete with the credit card information from the buyer, then receive an immediate confirmation then and there. This easy method is excellent for low-volume sellers and those who operate outside a traditional office setup. However, the benefits of this system can make it appealing to many businesses.

How it Works

When it comes to payments by phone, there is a specific series of steps which you will take to complete each transaction. This standardized system helps avoid any confusion and was designed with the seller’s convenience in mind.

1. Receive a sale – Online selling is convenient and tends to expedite the sales process. But what happens if someone calls in, faxes, or mails a sale order to you? In these cases, payments by phone come in handy.
2. Receive payment info – with the conclusion of the sale, you will also need to receive payment info, whether it is for direct withdrawal from an account or debit/credit card information.
3. Call toll-free number – assuming you already have the MOTO merchant account offered by One Source pos, Inc.; your next step is to “call in” the sale. When you sign on with us, you will receive a toll-free number for this purpose.
4. Input information and receive confirmation – While calling in the sale, you will be asked for information about the sale — including payment and sale information, all of which you should have. Once you enter the information, generally by dialing directly into the phone’s keypad, you will receive a confirmation meaning the sale has gone through.
5. Check your account – in a day or two, the money from the sale should deposit directly into your account!

With these five easy steps, payment processing by phone has never been easier! As long as you have all the necessary information from the sale, the process will always run along these lines, making for a smooth remote transaction!

Benefits of Payments by Phone

If you are a business that specializes in low-volume sales — such as larger, more expensive products, there are several benefits that payments by phone can offer. For one, if your business is suited for using call-in payments, we highly recommend that you pursue this option. As far as pos systems are concerned, payments by phone tend to be the most cost-efficient available.

Along with the up-front cost savings, there is also the added benefit of never needing to mess around with equipment. The entire process is run through a third-party(?) call center, meaning that there will never be any malfunctions, confusion or required maintenance on your end. It is also an incredibly convenient system for anyone who works remotely; the order can be completed on either analog or mobile phones, meaning the easy process can happen anywhere!
