Greenlite Cashless Payment System – An Overview

Cashless payments have become essential for vending machines in an era of high competition and changing customer expectations. Greenlite prides itself on being one of the most reliable cashless payment systems. 

Greenlite offers a range of features that make transactions fast, secure, and easy to use; the payment system facilitates remote monitoring and reporting of cash and cashless goods sold. It also can access your web-based account from any internet-connected device and has the option to get alerts based on machine alerts and status. This blog post provides an overview of Greenlite's cashless payment system.

Greenlite: What is It?

Greenlite simplifies cashless vending by providing an easy-to-use web application for managing sales from your machine. This solution includes a wireless credit card reader with NFC capability, a cellular telemetry device, a high gain antenna, a door switch, and a temperature sensor (on refrigerated and frozen food machines) that notes and records temperature alerts. Remote monitoring and reporting are accessible through the cloud-based app, viewable via computer, tablet, or any other browser-enabled device. Greenlite incorporates management tools not found in most cashless payment systems. It is a system designed to be efficient, translating into more profits for your organization.

How Does Greenlite Work?

Greenlite wireless scanners are supported by a suite of integrated cloud-based mobile technologies, all powered by Cantaloupe Systems. For over 15 years, Cantaloupe Systems have assisted vendors in becoming more profitable and efficient. Near Field Communication (NFC) and magnetic strip technology are other features this system incorporates.  

Key Features 

Some of the features of the platform include:

1. Accept all card types – Greenlight is a fully-functional card reader that supports multiple card types, including Visa® Credit, Visa® Debit, MasterCard® Credit, Discover® Card, and American Express. 
2. Mobile Payment Interface – Greenlite’s mobile payment solution features mobile payment options, thanks to its Built-in Near Field Communication (NFC) reader that supports SoftCard Mobile Wallet® and Apple Pay®, along with contactless cards of other major brands.  
3. The device will not store your data – The transactions you complete with this machine can meet the current payment card industry-standard compliance. It will not store data during purchase.  
4. Manage it 24/7 – This system’s web-based management application allows you to keep track of your machines 24x7 on any smartphone, tablet, or computer. 
5. Track your sales  – Analyze sales data with options to check them based on sales history – on a day, week, month, and yearly basis. 
6. Integrated cash and cashless reporting – You don’t need to look for another device to check your cash transactions. Greenlite offers you the ability to review both cash and cashless transactions. 
7. Visual alerts – This feature provides alerts on the health status of your machine every time you log in. 

Here’s a look at how Greenlight can benefit your vending business: 

More business, more revenue – The more payment options your customer has, the more potential for income. 

Health alerts – Receive alerts based on the health of the machine. You will receive additional alerts as the machine-level monitoring tracks connectivity, sales, and performance. 

Decrease downtime – Reduce downtime through optimized service visits. The system reduces guesswork with operational data that can maximize track routes and manage inventory. 

Smarter, better business decisions – Greenlite systemizes your cash accountability. It can optimize reporting, simplify service tickets, and offers a one-stop system for processing, pre-picking, and inventory management. 

Introducing Greenlite Pico 

Greenlite Pico is the new avatar of cashless vending technology and an excellent addition to the Greenlite series. Pico offers free access to downloadable reports and the option to upload price changes. Additional features include machine planogram tracking, wireless remote monitoring, mobile route iOS app, and cashless performance alerts. 

The latest regulations state that debit and credit card “Tap” payments and mobile wallets will no longer process on non-EMV Seed and ePort readers. Users can continue with the Magswipe payment option. 

How to Identify if Your Greenlite Seed device is EMV Compliant?

It is easy to identify the EMV status of your Greenlite Seed machine. Check that the device on the front of your machine is dark gray. Importantly, check for an orange seed box inside your machine. If the machine has no orange box, your cashless device already complies with EMV regulations.

Greenlite Cashless Payment System is a great way to streamline and simplify the payment process for vending businesses. It saves time and money, eliminates cash handling costs, and provides more efficient record-keeping. The features are easy to use and secure, ensuring customers can make payments quickly and safely.
