Point of sale systems FAQ

What is a point of sale system?

Point of sale systems are comprised of POS hardware and software and are used by retail stores, restaurants, venues and arenas to take orders, accept payments, track inventory management and manage employees.

Most types of POS systems include traditional touchscreen countertop devices with card readers and receipt printers or mobile iPad® based formats. A top-notch enterprise, restaurant or retail POS system, like Genius, can help boost business with customizable features, omnichannel functionality and marketing and loyalty integrations.

What payment methods can I accept?

Genius is a point of sale solution that supports in-person and online card payments, including all major credit cards and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, JCB and UnionPay).

Consumers are increasingly using mobile payments, so our Genius point of sale solution is equipped to accept digital wallets and contactless payments from mobile devices, such as Apple Pay®, Google Pay® (formerly Android Pay), Samsung Wallet, AliPay and WeChat Pay.

Your business will also be able to accept payments via gift cards, EMV chip cards, and more.

What security features do your POS systems provide?

Genius is a secure cloud-based point of sale system which allows you to process payments confidently using advanced PCI-DSS compliant technology including blocking third-party access to payment data using end-to-end encryption and tokenization.

Can I integrate Genius with my ecommerce platform?

We will work with you to ensure you select the best possible solution for your existing platform. Contact us for a full list of integration partners.

What are the pricing and transaction fees for Genius point of sale systems?

Transaction fees, monthly fees and pricing depend on the type of payment processed, whether the transaction is made in-store or online and other variables.

We offer straightforward pricing with no hidden fees and allow the freedom to choose a POS system plan that suits your business needs — so you never pay for what you don’t need. You may also opt to offset your payment processing costs with surcharge and cash discount programs.*

How quickly will I receive funds from customer transactions?

In most cases, funding is deposited the following business day (after settlement) to the financial account you provide at time of boarding. Your Global Payments representative will be happy to confirm this for you.

What type of customer support do you offer?

Genius point of sale solutions are backed by 24/7 customer support from in-house payment experts, not bots. Whenever you have a question or need help, we’re here for you.
