With space at a premium in cities across the US, more consumers are turning to storage facilities to house their excess belongings. In light of this trend, Electronic Merchant Systems announced updated payment processing solutions for self-storage business owners.
Electronic Merchant Systems (EMS) has launched virtual payment terminals for self-storage businesses, offering customizable transaction setup and configuration for a range of operational needs.
The announcement details a range of benefits for storage warehouse managers and their clients. The company provides streamlined invoicing, secure credit card processing, and automated payment features.
According to a study by leading storage provider Neighbor, there are almost 1.8 billion square feet of rentable storage space in the US. The scale of demand and the resulting facilities nationwide means that self-storage businesses outnumber the combined total of McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Dunkin’ Donuts, Pizza Hut, and Starbucks outlets across the country.
Electronic Merchant Systems understands the challenges facing self-storage businesses today. Many companies do not have a traditional storefront yet still require a reliable point-of-sale system. EMS Mobile offers a way for business owners to use their portable devices as a versatile merchant terminal. It offers compatibility with Android and iOS phones and tablets, connecting via Bluetooth for stable and secure processing.
The EMS Mobile card reader enables instant contactless payment via swipe, tap, and dip; inventory tracking in real-time; itemized transactions; cash handling options; and allows simultaneous multiple users.
EMS provides customizable email invoicing and receipts, vault storage for advanced security and data protection, and recurring payment features for regular customers or outstanding balances.
Users can configure their system to meet their specific needs, benefitting from versatile processing on the move. With many self-storage facilities operating unmanned, EMS makes remote payment management and point-of-sale simple and seamless.
