UltraPoS & Prepaid
SCL has been present in the U.S. prepaid market since 2003, where UltraPoS is used in over 600 shopping malls, automating the distribution and sales of many millions of cards, making us the world's leading independent prepaid point of sale systems provider. We are in the enviable position of being able to transfer the wealth of knowledge accrued during this period to other international markets. UltraPoS has been at the forefront of Europe's adoption of prepaid products, supporting programs in the gift card, travel and unbanked sectors.
Our independence, along with the flexible nature of UltraPoS, means that customers can choose from almost any combination of program type, processor, card issuer, currency, language, and compliance regime. This flexibility gives customers the opportunity to choose the best option for each of their individual requirements.
Who is it for?
UltraPoS is for any organisation who wishes to manage the sale of open or closed loop stored value cards.
What are the main features and benefits?
UltraPoS has many capabilities, which include (but are not limited to)
- Facilitate instant card issuance & activation
- Open & closed loop products
- Granular inventory management (customers are able to locate anything from a case of cards right down to an individual card)
- Rich reporting/MIS/reconciliation capabilities
- Seamless integration with internal & external systems
- Know Your Customer (KYC) & Anti Money Laundering (AML) facilities
UltraPoS offers the following deployment options and is designed to utilise multiple sales channels:
- Concierge Desks
- Giftcard Malls
- Corporate/bulk orders
- Consumer Websites
- Self-Service Kiosks
- Handheld Devices
UltraPoS possesses the capability to handle high volumes of card sales. During December 2008, the busiest time of the holiday period, we handled approximately 10 million transactions and only used 20% of our capacity.
What about security?
UltraPoS is configurable to enable businesses to be fully compliant with the standards of the prepaid processing market and can be readily customised to reflect the local regulatory requirements. It meets KYC requirements by capturing and verifying information through links to external agencies, to give business owners greater protection against money laundering.
For added security, the access to the system can be controlled via user permissions on a "need to do" basis. Lastly, UltraPoS has strong compliance reporting facilities both for our customers' own purposes and mandatory reporting to regulators.
What else can UltraPoS do?
The versatile nature of UltraPoS is further demonstrated by its capability to manage and sell a wide range of products in addition to prepaid cards. Sundry items, anything from gift boxes and car parking to more unusual items such as Santa's Grotto tickets, can also be managed and sold using the same software, facilitating cross-sell opportunities.
