Cash Discount Programs
A cash discount program occurs when a merchant decreases the price for
cash purchases and offers merchants an alternative to credit card
processing. Cash discount programs are not credit card surcharges because
they do not levy a fee that is added to a credit card transaction.

Benefits of Cash Discount for Merchants
• Service fees are collected by the technology provider who then pays off
the credit card charges on behalf of the merchant, essentially removing
the need for any back-end accounting or complex statements.
• The merchant will usually see their credit card fees dramatically
reduced with only a small technology fee to pay at the end of the
month.
• All those service fees add up to thousands in savings every year.
Upgrade equipment, give a raise, or just take a much deserved vacation
with your fee savings.

Gateway with Cash Discount
A gateway is a tool/application that gives a merchant the ability to accept
card transactions for payment, in place of the traditional table-top merchant
terminal. Generally, a gateway also provides additional services such as
reporting and fraud management.
In years past, gateway solutions were used primarily by e-commerce and CNP
merchants, as an integration point with their shopping carts and/or web-site.
Now, gateway applications are becoming more common with retail/brick &
mortar merchants.

iPOS Solutions
iPOS (integrated point of sale) solutions are integrated hardware and software
solutions which combine payment processing and business management tools for
businesses.
iPOS solutions have traditionally been implemented at large-merchant locations
(ie. hospitality industry chains – hotels/restaurants) due to the networking
capabilities and price points.
