ECW- questions

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone that has ECW use any of these partners -
1-Vantiv
2- Openedge
3 TSYS

What they likes/dislikes- any information - would be helpful
Thanks

Hi. We chose Vantiv a year ago due to the cost and I think possibly they take AMEX and Discover. Can’t really remember exactly why.

Advantages

  • Integration for epayments on the portal

  • Multiple readers that you purchase outright so many people can take payments at the same time. We have 2 in reception, 1 in our business office and 1 in our “sick” office we set up due to the pandemic

  • No need for paper tape rolls, receipt prints on any printer

  • Monthly fees lower than our previous vendor

Disadvantages

*the virtual terminal portal through iQ is horrible and difficult to log onto

  • Have to print receipts on printer paper

  • Readers are not contactless or portable. USB plugs into CPU. Seems like old technology
