: Grange Builders Providers achieves operational benefits using Agility Software EPOS solution integrated with YESpay managed payment service

Sep 09, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- London, UK: Agility Softwares EPOS solution is now integrated with YESpay Internationals EasyV-retail solution to enable its largely growing customer base to accept Chip and PIN debit and credit card payments.

Since 2001 Agility Software has a strong retailer customer base in DIY markets, buildersaEUR(TM) merchants, pet and equine retailers, multi-national home storage franchises and both food and clothing retailers. It is the largest supplier of Point of Sale (POS) software solutions to independent buildersaEUR(TM) merchants and DIY retailers in Ireland and is rapidly growing in the United Kingdom as well. Integrated with YESpay Internationals managed payment service, Agility Software is offering its clients a renowned POS, stock control and accounting solution, complete with a card payment service that is reliable, affordable, fully pre-accredited (generically) by all the major card acquirers in UK, Europe and North America but also end-to-end certified to Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) Level 1 as mandated by Visa and MasterCard.

Grange Builders Providers, a leading building materials, hardware, garden, DIY, painting and decorating goods retailer based in Dublin, Ireland, is one of Agility Softwares customers that switched to YESpays outsourced payment solution from using bank owned terminals. Small and small to medium size retailers like Grange Builders Providers tend to use bank owned terminals because they think that this is the most economical solution for them or simply because they do not want to deal with many different suppliers. This, however, means that they have to put up with an unstable connection and a very slow payment processing service, while they are still responsible to arrange for PCI-DSS compliance. The benefits of adopting YESpays service for Grange Builders Providers have been immediate: speed of transaction, improved customer service, PCI DSS compliance and enhanced security.

Liam Phelam, Purchasing Manager, Grange Builders Providers says Moving to YESpays managed payment service has saved us the headache of dealing with bank owned terminals or having to worry about PCI DSS compliance anymore. Using Agility and YESpays service we can serve more customers more efficiently and provide an excellent customer service. For a busy retailer like ourselves, sharing 3 bank owned terminals between 10 tills using a dial up line was an issue; now each till is independent and each customer transaction is completed in just seconds! The service is stable and reliable, not to mention it is cheaper than using the banks owned terminals. I cannot recommend Agility and YESpay service highly enough and I am pleased to work with them.

David Malcolm, Director, Agility Software adds I am always happy to see that our customers are more than satisfied with using the solutions that we suggest to them, and YESpays managed payment service does not let me or my customers down. The service is fast and faultless and customer support is always there, if ever needed. Last but not least, YESpays payment service is offered with no infrastructure costs and priced at a low monthly fee per EPOS system.

YESpays payment gateway, EMBOSS, reduces business and technical issues of outsourcing payment services and helps merchants avoid lengthy timescales and high costs of EMV certification and PCI compliance of their retail environments. Through EMBOSS, retailers can fast track the implementation of integrated EMV Chip and PIN card payments acceptance solutions for their retail, kiosks and hospitality payment systems. It can also enhance their websites for on-line payments with minimal capital investment and low on-going services costs. Grange Builders Providers is now developing its e-commerce website which will be available in approximately a months time; again Grange Builders Providers will use YESpays secure online payment platform for processing internet payments.

Stuart Kitching, Regional Manager at YESpay International comments PCI DSS compliance and quality of service are key requirements that retailers are looking for in a managed cards payment service. YESpay is offering exactly this at a low monthly cost and with no upfront capital investment.
