Line busting
Nothing frustrates customers like a long line, but cashiers are only human and sometimes a backlog of customers waiting to pay is unavoidable. Stand-alone self-service payment kiosks are an option, but they're extremely expensive and require specialized training and maintenance. So, how can you save your customers the time and headache of waiting in line without breaking the bank?
Mobile payment systems empower customers to pay for their purchases from anywhere in-store, easing the load on your cashiers, shortening the line for the people that choose to get in it, and getting every customer through the checkout process faster, regardless of how they choose to pay. Faster time-to-purchase is a win-win for everyone involved, making mobile in-store payments an easy choice.
Network StatusConnectedOffline Mode

Payments will auto-sync when connection is restored.
Offline
BAMS mobile payment systems offer complete offline functionality, ensuring that even when the system is offline, payments can still be made and business can continue as usual. This can't be said for all legacy mobile systems. This means you can still make portable merchant services payments on the go with offline mobile processing.
Offline processing functionality is extremely important since your company's internet going down temporarily isn't a question of if, but when. Without offline payments, transactions would grind to a halt — a surefire way to usher your customers out the door and to a competitor whose systems are up.
With BAMS, losing connection is never a worry and you can rest assured that even if the internet does go out, your customers won't even realize it. They'll be able to access the same fast, convenient, secure payments at all times.

Reporting
You can't manage what you can't measure, and it's important that your mobile sales are just as easy to track as sales at the counter or on your website. BAMS mobile credit card payment options all offer seamlessly integrated real-time reporting to ensure you'll always have fast, easy access to the data you need, when and where you need it.
Mobile payment reporting can be accessed separately or aggregated alongside your overall sales data, providing as wide or as narrow a view of your mobile sales operations as needed. BAMS mobile payment systems also offer the ability to send electronic receipts to customers, set up and manage which employees can operate mobile payment hardware, and much more.

RECEIPT + REPORT
Receipts go out, and every sale lands in reporting.
BAMS mobile device payment systems plug directly into any standard smartphone using either the 3.5mm headphone jack, the micro USB port, or, in the case of Apple devices, the Lightning port.
With the hardware plugged in, accepting payment is as simple as opening up your payment app of choice and swiping or tapping the customer's payment card. The transaction will be processed over the web right through the smartphone, a receipt will be emailed to the customer, and the transaction data and inventory updates will be logged in your systems, all within seconds.
The ability to perform the entire transaction process, from start to finish, from any smartphone represents a new frontier in low-cost, low-friction payment technology, especially for small and hobby businesses without the need for larger payment systems or even a storefront.
Swipe readers are the simplest and most common form of mobile payment hardware in use today, but they aren't the safest or the most convenient.
EMV-compliant readers allow customers to insert their chip cards, and in many cases, to tap them using nearfield communication (NFC) contactless technology. Utilizing EMV-compliant mobile payment systems not only ensures your customers' data is safer, it also helps you unlock lower rates thanks to the reduced risk EMV payments represent. On the customer end, it makes the payment process more contactless — a big factor in a post-COVID world.
BAMS offers a full line of EMV-compliant mobile payment hardware, ensuring both your business and your customers will always benefit from the safest, most convenient mobile payments possible.
