FiPay Dial Backup
Merchants can add a dial backup option to guard against network failure by implementing FiPay Dial Backup.
FiPay Dial Backup runs on the in-store server or master POS terminal connected to the network. The software monitors the primary communication link at all times. When it determines that the primary link is down, the system automatically goes into dial backup mode and reroutes the traffic directly to the financial institution for authorization. This mode ensures that the financial transactions continue to be processed, even if the store loses WAN communications.
FiPay Dial Backup offers merchants the option of communicating with the financial institution directly from the store or via the RTS central switch. FiPay Dial Backup continues to route requests from the POS terminals to the RTS or the financial institution. FiPay Dial Backup can also be used in conjunction with FiPay PIN to integrate devices and POS applications.
