Benefits

Verifone Central empowers both merchants and resellers with the following possibilities, which include, but are not limited to: 

1. Business setups
   View the organizational structure, manage tokens, and secure card capture key for your business.
2. Data analysis
   
   • Powerful Reporting
     Verifone Central offers many ways of filtering and reporting transactions. A user can load a complete list of millions of transactions, then filter them instantly by date, organization, status, and many other criteria, to boil them down to whatever set they require. 
     Accessing a given transaction reveals all the detailed information relating to it, e.g., the country in which a payment card was issued, or the country from which the customer’s IP address originates.
   • Data Analytics/Dashboard
     We use big-data technology, designed for analytics, to generate precise visualizations that can render billions of transactions into a variety of interactive charts and graphs designed to show trends and relationships relevant to payment transactions. 
3. Transaction execution
   
   • Omnichannel transaction management
     Diversify and simplify the way you manage transactions - accept payments in-store using POS (Point of Sale) and make refunds online using Verifone Central interface. 
   • Alternative Payment Methods
     Accept wallet payments, such as Apple Pay or Google Pay, using POS and eCommerce. 
4. Powerful API
   
   • Comprehensive API and Verifone Central
     Verifone offers a comprehensive API capable of accessing and controlling eCommerce payments and payment modifications, and process transactions. 
     Verifone Central is layered above the API, relying on it to implement every user interface feature. One benefit of this approach is that the use of Verifone Central is optional, as all its capabilities are also available via the API. Typically, our customers will mix and match their use of the Verifone Central app and API, according to their specific needs and preferred business processes. 
5. POS devices management
   Set up and monitor your POS devices, locations, and tenants.
