Before We Start EASY ID EASY ID is a part of a comprehensive retailer awareness program to ensure the legal sale of age-restricted products. Do not rely on EASY ID as the only source of information. It does not take the place of a trained, aware, and conscientious retailer and cashier. EASY ID should only be used in states which permit the electronic verification of information from drivers’ licenses. Retailers should determine that electronic verification is permitted in their states. Drivers’ licenses from all other states require the use of the “manual” function. Note: All software is provided as is, without any warranty of any kind, whether direct, indirect, exemplary, special, consequential, incidental, or otherwise with regard to any use of EASY ID. 1. Make sure the current date and time are correctly set. If the date and time are not set correctly, the unit may not display the correct information when an identification is checked. 2. Make sure the lamination (plastic) surrounding the identification is intact and clear. 3. Make sure the picture and/or description match the customer. 4. Make sure the words are all legible and clear. 5. Make sure any holograms or watermarks are visible. Weights and Measures Support for cash and credit pricing at the dispenser requires explicit cash and credit selections on the dispenser. This is in compliance with the Weights and Measures Guidelines for Selectable Unit Price Capability, section G-S.5.1. Note: This Ruby software supports a POP Discount feature, which allows a point-of-purchase discount on fuel based on the purchase meeting certain pre-defined transaction criteria. It is possible that the Weights and Measures department in your state may consider this POP Discount feature, when used in a post-pay scenario, to be in violation of state regulations. YOUR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE POP DISCOUNT FEATURE IS DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK. VERIFONE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR CLAIMS, FINES OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM IMPLEMENTATION OF THE POP DISCOUNT FEATURE IN A LOCALE WHERE IT IS DEEMED A VIOLATION OF LOCAL OR STATE REGULATIONS. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR LOCAL WEIGHTS AND MEASURES ENFORCEMENT GROUP BEFORE IMPLEMENTING THE POP DISCOUNT FEATURE.

  • Continued Industry Tailwinds Should Support Square's Story
    THE NEW IS HERE × Try it Free Continued Industry Tailwinds Should Support Square's Story Sep. 20, 2019 7:36 AM ET10 comments | 6 Likes by: Alexander Veytsman Summary We see SQ as a solid story with multiple industry tailwinds, such as EMV and continued cash-to-plastic conversion. Convenient processing and analytics remains key to Square's popularity. Our valuation supports at least 25% upside from the current levels. Basic Business / Product Analysis: Square, Inc. is a financial services company that focuses on software and hardware payments products. Square Register allows merchants to accept offline debit and credit cards on both smart-phones and tablet computers. Merchants enter card details through the Square Reader, which plugs into the supported smart-phone/tablet and reads the magnetic stripe. We see Square as uniquely positioned to take advantage of several major developments in the evolution of point-of-sale (POS) transactions and, indeed, the payments world as a whole over the last decade. The company stands at the forefront of payment processing, adopting and integrating recent trends. At the same time, Square’s products cater to a wide variety of merchants, from retail stores to restaurants to cabs, particularly smaller businesses – those that are often overlooked by Square’s established competitors in the terminals space, such as VeriFone and Ingenico. Valuation: When we compare Square against its peers in the payments industry, such as VeriFone and Ingenico, as well as other players, such as GPN, ADS, V, and MA, among others, we find that the company merits a revenue multiple of 6.3x on 2020 revenue, which would result in the target price of $74.

  • Commerce Commission – Ingenico/Paymark
    PUBLIC VERSION COMMERCE COMMISSION – INGENICO/PAYMARK INGENICO SUBMISSION ON COMMISSION’S 11 JULY 2018 LETTER OF ISSUES 1 Ingenico welcomes this opportunity to comment on the Commerce Commission’s 11 July 2018 letter of issues. Summary of this submission 2 Paymark does not have switching services market power. It cannot unilaterally foreclose payment switching competition. The commercial reality is that Paymark is constrained by Verifone and Payment Express. Each has switching and link assets. And each firm is an aggressive, full-service competitor with growth ambitions: 2.1 Verifone and Ingenico are multi-billion dollar global players and compete in New Zealand and in hundreds of other countries around the world. 2.2 Payment Express can continue to leverage its [ ] share of digital payments to expand across the board as it competes in every part of the NZ merchant market. 2.3 The trend to STA benefits Verifone and Payment Express too, because they can leverage their existing infrastructure to compete more effectively for STA transactions, while falling back to Paymark wholesale access (either directly or indirectly) to cover STI transactions as required or desired. The overall result is that Verifone and Payment Express are head-on Paymark competitors. Each has gauged an efficient capital investment strategy and asset mix. Each is winning new merchants all the time at Paymark’s expense. And together their pricing constrains Paymark all across the market and for all payment types, not just STA. 3 Aside from current market infrastructure, any major player—Verifone, a major acquirer or a new entrant—could readily build out new links.

    Menu Search Bloomberg Sign In Subscribe Thousands of wallets are buried in a glass box to raise awareness of mobile payments in Shanghai, China. Source: VCG/Getty Images By Jennifer Surane and Christopher Cannon May 23, 2018 Wandering the streets of Shanghai to admire the architecture, the head of one of the largest U.S. consumer banks recently found himself surrounded by a gaggle of teenagers. Entranced by their phones, they hardly made way for the banker. The teens were messaging, shopping and sending money back and forth, all without cash. Instead, they were using Alipay and WeChat. The scary thing for the American: Banks never got a cut. The future of consumer payments may not be designed in New York or London but in China. There, money flows mainly through a pair of digital ecosystems that blend social media, commerce and banking—all run by two of the world’s most valuable companies. That contrasts with the U.S., where numerous firms feast on fees from handling and processing payments. Western bankers and credit- card executives who travel to China keep returning with the same anxiety: Payments can happen cheaply and easily without them.
