Program Features
MICROTRONIC solutions offer such flexibility with
the cashless vending applications, enabling operators to offer key programs
to fit their customer needs.
Happy Hour Feature
Products can be discounted using the Happy Hour feature. For
example, this feature in a factory environment can encourage the purchase of foods with a limited shelf life to be discounted from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm on a Friday afternoon or Coffee machine discounts during a time period when sales typically drop off.
Limited Items Purchased
Limit the number of items purchased during selected times of the day.
This feature is used with office supplies, photo copiers, and could be
useful in a school environment.
Customer Loyalty Rewards
Readers can be programmed to give customer loyalty rewards.
Example - free drink with purchase of 10 or 25% discount on chips with
purchase of food and drink. Operators can also get local merchants to offer discounts to card holders as an additional loyalty value.
Dual Pricing
This exclusive feature of the MICROTRONIC system allows the operator
the option of higher cash prices while discounting the Cashless price (even in penny increments) to
entice the customer to use their Cashless media and increase the amount of
pre-loading. Using Cashless vending decreases the amount of wear and tear on
the Coin mechs and Bill Acceptors resulting in less service calls and
less work in the counting room.
Automatic
Loading
This is available to be used on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis, or
even on a select day, such as a holiday. This can also be "Virtual
Money" that can disappear if not used within a given time period, such as an employee benefit.
Access Control
This program can be used to allow or disallow entry into certain doors and cabinets at set periods of time. It is also capable of charging entry fees for Park Lights, Tanning Beds, Theme Park Entry, as well as many additional Access Control applications. It can be used as a standalone system or can be networked to a centralized computer terminal.
**Customized Programming is available for ALL
applications and specifications for a nominal fee. This option can
be used without the necessity of purchasing any or all of the MICROTRONIC software.
