Europacom

Payment Cards

“As a large brewery with an equally large managed Public House estate, we have very specific voice and data telecoms requirements. Europacom quickly understood our existing and future business requirements and implemented an appropriate set of solutions. They managed a large broadband roll-out efficiently and now supply day-to-day operational services that enable our business processes to take place in a fraction of the time previously taken.”
Mike McMinn, Director of IT, Marston's Brewery

A trusted name...
Europacom is the name to trust when electronic financial transactions are critical to core business, supplying managed broadband networks to valued clients in the retail, hospitality and other sectors.

Card sharp
The modern business operates in a credit and debit card-dependent society, and consumers now pay for around half their routine purchases by card. UK payments association APACS reports that there were 669 million plastic card transactions in December 2006 – that’s a record 250 transactions per second, day and night, throughout the month – and a record £31 billion going through Chip and Pin handsets.

It’s network, or not work…
Card purchases can account for 63% of total retail sales, and consumers want the efficiency of a card purchase and the speed of the cash transaction. To meet this demand retailers need a supported network to that will maximise the number of transactions at key times. Companies running network-dependent operations know that when their network goes down, so do their profits. We can help.
