Retail Connectivity
InComm's provides you with flexible transaction processing and activation options that match the needs of virtually any retail establishment and every customer.

With that goal in mind, we offer five standard ways for you to process transactions: Host-to-Host connectivity (sales are processed through the retailer POS system), stand-alone terminals, Visa® network terminals, stand-alone kiosks and vending machines. Each method supports activation, voids and refunds, recharges and multi-pack product activation. That means you can select the method that works best for your retail environment.
In addition, our In-Store Sales Support provides retailer with a custom, web-based application that enables the sale of contracted, postpaid services including cable and satellite television, wireless and more from the nation's leading providers.

Host-to-Host Connectivity: Tailored to the Needs of Large Retailers
For the ultimate in flexibility, we support Host-to-Host processing. Host-to-Host network connectivity provides a one-step process for capturing, processing, and auditing sales. This solution works best for large retailers with integrated infrastructures. It is simple to operate and provides an easy daily accounting of transactions. Best of all, host-to-host processing speeds check out time at the register for clerks and customers and simplifies sales tracking and reconciliation.
Stand-Alone Terminals : Secure Activation from InComm
For a simple and secure solution to transaction processing, our dedicated point-of-sale terminal system is easily and quickly deployed anywhere a phone line or Internet connection is available. Our POS Terminal solution supports credit and debit processing as well as product activation, deactivation and reload. The system also supports PIN-on-receipt purchases, eliminating the need for physical card activation.
Seamless Integration with Visa® Terminals
If you are one of the more than 25 million retailers already using VISA® Net terminals, you'll be glad to know that we supports processing via the VISA® network. This transaction processing option can be quickly implemented using your existing hardware, without any upfront costs or programming requirements.
Kiosks
Our payment kiosks enable retailers to offer your customers a self-service solution to pay utility or wireless bills, top up prepaid wireless, buy new songs for mp3 players and more. Our kiosks support many products including bill payments for utilities, cable and satellite television, wireless service, credit cards, car loans and more. The kiosks also offer the nation's most popular products in prepaid wireless, gift cards, downloadable music, long-distance, prepaid debit cards and more.
We offer retailers a complete kiosk solution, including installation and setup, cash management, product expertise, support and more. The kiosks require only two square feet of floor space, and the kiosks can be customized to display marketing content and promote store products.
Vending Machines
Through our DataWave subsidiary, we offer an established network of free-standing intelligent vending machines that sell prepaid long-distance phone cards. DataWave is the leading operator of prepaid phone card vending machines at major airports, hotels, casinos and theme parks across the United States.

In-Store Sales Support Software
Our Retail Connectivity enables you to order and manage postpaid services including wireless, broadband or television. Your customers can leverage our technology to sign up for postpaid services, pay their monthly services bills and do many other things at convenient retail locations such as grocery stores, big box retailers and more. This provides you with added convenience and allows you to offer your customers a simple solution for many services that are not so simple today.
We have integrated with several leading wireless, cable television and other subscription providers to enable its partners to sell subscription services to customers using our proprietary In-Store Sales Support Software. The Web-based application provides a standardized interface across all services, so the sales process for adding a subscriber for one provider is very much the same as the process for another provider. The software completes the sign-up process in a fraction of the time required by most other processes today.
