ISI has integrated with various credit card processors over the years, but none more exciting than our new integration with Merchant Partners. We spent a significant amount of time searching for a partner that could meet our customer’s credit card processing needs, have competitive pricing and offer integrated fleet card and gift card programs. Merchant Partners is the company meeting those goals.

As part of this new integration project there is now the option to use multiple credit card readers in a store. Stores with multiple cashier stations are no longer required to share a single credit card terminal.

Credit card processing protocols and offerings tend to change frequently. Our integration will keep up and advance with the growing demands of the industry be it with EMV processing, signature capture, NFC processing (ApplePay™, Android Pay™, etc.) and more.
