Using a credit card reader is a key component to processing credit cards quickly.
ResNexus supports the use of card readers. You simply plug the reader into your device and let ResNexus know you are using a card reader. The card reader needs to be in "keyboard emulation mode".
ResNexus works with most brands of card readers.
Extra security is required when storing credit cards. ResNexus is PCI compliant via audit. Certified auditors constantly audit ResNexus to ensure we meet the highest industry standards.
Additional security precautions have been made to ResNexus. For example, all guest credit cards are deleted 45 days after guests depart from your property. This keeps the number of credit cards on file extremely low. You can also lock down access to the ResNexus back office to specific Internet addresses (IP addresses) and dev ices. You are notified whenever someone tries to log in from another Internet address.
It's a solid business practice to collect a deposit for services rendered in the future. First, it ensures the card on file is legitimate and has funds available. Secondly it communicates to the guest that their reservation is confirmed and they are committed to show up.
When online reservations are booked through ResNexus' online booking engine for your property, request for a card on file is made and, per your preference, a deposit can be collected to complete the reservation.
When handling a phone reservation through ResNexus' back office for your property, you can elect to configure and use the "Auto Collect" button to process the pre-configured deposit. This makes taking a deposit a breeze.
