5 tips to simplify your holiday rush

More customers. More orders. More transactions. And a lot less time.

For local businesses, the holiday season is an important time… and a particularly busy one. Fortunately, your payment solutions can do much more than just accept cards.

Here are 5 ways to put them to work so you can serve customers faster, simplify your operations and make the most of the holiday season.

1. Take payments anywhere in your store.

Is the line getting longer at the checkout? Need an extra register for a few hours? No need to overhaul your entire setup.

With the PandaPay app, you can turn a smartphone into a mini POS. Your employees can go straight to customers, select products, accept payment and send the receipt.

Simple, mobile and especially handy when your store fills up.

2. Know what you have left to sell.

During the holidays, your most popular products can sell out fast.

The PandaPay app lets you add your products and SKUs and easily track your inventory along with your sales.

You can see at a glance what’s selling and what’s left — before a customer asks for the gift you just sold.

3. Send a link. Get paid.

A customer calls to reserve a product? You’re preparing a special order? Someone wants to buy now and pick up later?

Just send a payment link by text or email.

Your customer clicks, pays, and that’s it.

A simple solution for reservations, special orders, deposits, phone orders and last-minute purchases.

4. Keep selling even when your store is closed.

Your customers shop in the evening, over lunch or from the comfort of home. Why limit your sales to your business hours?

If you have an online store, PandaPay can integrate with the leading e-commerce platforms to simplify your payments.

Your store closes. Your sales don’t have to.

5. Prepaid pickup orders

On December 23, nobody wants to wait in line at the checkout.

With remote payments, your customers can pay for their order before they even leave home. When they arrive, their purchase is already paid for and ready to go.

They come in. They pick up. They leave.

Simpler for them. More efficient for you.

Don’t let payment slow down your sales.

A few well-chosen tools can make a big difference when every minute counts. Because during the holiday rush, making payment easier also makes buying easier. Take a few minutes today to ask yourself one simple question:

Are my payment tools ready to keep up with the holiday pace?
