As a tech, why Focus POS is the best.
Focus POS is brilliant software. It is brilliant in it’s simplicity and it is this simplicity that makes Focus POS the most reliable point-of-sale system in the industry.
First, Focus POS has no Microsoft Windows installation. It is one folder residing in the root directory of the hard drive and has one executable program. Simple!
Second, Focus POS has no Window’s VXDs, DLLs or any other complexity and Focus POS never touches the Windows operating system. Brilliant!
Third, Focus POS is logical. Installation after installation servers, bartenders and managers tell us Focus POS is the easiest and best point-of-sale system they have ever used. Our twenty years of installation experience insure owner operators painless trouble free POS investment. As a tech, Focus POS is a snap without stress.
I could go on and on about how good Focus POS is to a tech. Here is the bottom line; Focus POS runs like a tank. Day in day out, weekly, monthly, yearly for decades Focus POS runs. That’s what I like about Focus POS as a tech.

Changes to the card network regulations are coming. All merchants are required to be PCI compliant at all times. Card networks have mandated that all credit card processors report every merchant’s PCI compliance status starting January 31, 2017. Previously this was only required for the larger level 1, 2, & 3 merchants.
Additionally, merchants that qualify for the Technology Innovation Program (TIP) by processing with EMV or a validated point-to-point encryption solution will not be required to validate their compliance.
Obviously this is the big banks method to completely put the burden of charge backs and fraud on the backs of the merchants. Merchants will pay more to accept credit cards at the point-of-sale. While the banks make gazillions of dollars, merchants bear the burden of ever increasing fees and expenses to accommodate credit card processing all while being completely responsible for any losses do to fraud.
PCI compliance is an impossible standard to accomplish. Even the most dedicated merchant cannot meet the the standard as set by the credit card industry. Now PCI compliance and EMV will be required to keep your costs down and liabilities at bay.
So what can you, the merchant do. First and foremost don’t bear the burden of all the endless fees being imposed upon you. Pass those fees thru your POS system to the card holder. Focus POS can easily add the cost of credit card processing to the customers guest check. New Mexico POS has programmed a number of our Focus POS customers to do just this. Reports from the business owners have all been positive reporting very few complaints from customers and no loss of business as a result of having Focus POS add credit card processing fees on each and every guest check used for credit card processing. Customers just pay the fees!
Here are the numbers. $1,000,000 sales, 80% credit card sales and average 20% credit card tip. Credit card fees, compliance costs and added liability insurance costs average 3% of sales plus tips. The math is:
sales x .8 = cc sales, cc sales x .2 = tips, cc sales + tips = cc total, cc total x 3% = cc fees
$1,000,000 x .8 = $800,000, 800,000 x .2 = $160,000, $800k + $160k = $960k, $960k x 3% = $28,800 fees
Think of what it costs you to pay the credit card industry $28,800 in credit card fees. If you are an extremely well run business and gather a 10% gross profit on your bottom line, you require $288,000 in sales just to pay those fees. Wouldn’t you rather put $28,800 to your bottom line than give it to the big banks?
Focus POS and New Mexico POS with this one feature can put profit back in your business again.

Everyone is making money on credit cards; why not the merchant?
It is no secret the banking industry in America has been full press for two decades to put a credit or debit card in every man’s, woman’s, and child’s pocket. Why not? They are making trillions of dollars all on the backs of restaurateurs and retailers. Isn’t it time for you to make money too? Focus POS has helped bar owners and restaurateurs overcome the high risk of charge backs by passing credit card fees through to the card holders. Focus POS simply adds the credit card processing fee to the transaction adding significant savings for the owners. What a terrific feature.
Looking at the numbers, if your overall rate from the processor is 2.5% (fees / volume) and you process $1,000,000 in credit cards a year, the fees are $25,000 per year, coming right out of your pocket. That is a large chunk of cash anyone would want to hold onto for the health of their business. Why shouldn’t you take a piece of the pie? Adding one percent on top of the processor’s fee and your Focus POS will remove the burden of credit card processing from your business and cover any possible charge backs the banks disavowed through the EMV mandates.
Business owners who have had New Mexico POS program their systems for this feature have reported virtually no complaints from customers for the added fee on their checks. All customers paid their check without comment. Electronic funding fees being passed through to the card users are becoming more and more common in establishments. See how Focus POS can increase the health of your restaurant’s bottom line with this wonderful feature.
