What it Means for Your Business
Delaying or failing to upgrade your estate in response to network closures may negatively impact your business by affecting POS terminals, ATMs and any device containing a wireless radio module that is not 4G capable.
What can these mean for your business?
- Degradation of network performance
- Reduced quality of service
- Inadequate connectivity
- Dissatisfied customers, including increased customer complaints and reputational damage
- Inability to process transactions resulting in loss of revenue
- Connectivity blackspots that cannot be geographically predicted
TNS is here to support your migration to next generation point of sale and connectivity.
Why Act Now
Being proactive has several benefits when it comes to your terminal estate.
- Avoid Risks to Your Business
Switching from 2G and 3G can help improve payment acceptance, lead to smoother processing and improved customer experience, and avoid the potential risk of intermittent connectivity, increased customer support complaints and reputational damage. - Better Allocate Resources
Avoid higher technical support workload and potentially the hiring of additional staff by preparing for decreased carrier support early. - Navigate Unexpected Global Events
Planning and ordering new equipment ahead of time may help avoid delays and longer lead times on new equipment availability caused by events like the global semiconductor shortage. - Head Off Customer Dissatisfaction
Get ahead of potential dissatisfaction by replacing older terminals with connectivity and processing issues. Weigh the costs of replacement of terminal estates vs. the useful life left and operational risk.
