Planning for better days to come...

As the UK faces another Lockdown, It's in our nature to plan and prepare... from our businesses to our homes, with the devastations and disruptions that Covid-19 has caused this year, it's easy to forget the good times.

Imagine the scene... it's a busy Saturday, whether you are in retail or hospitality the smell of freshly cooked food, freshly roasted coffee, fresh-cut flowers, freshly printed newspapers or freshly poured beer fills you with hope.

Your customers arrive at the point of sale to complete their purchases and are pleasantly surprised to find that they can now pay for their items without handing their cash over to your staff member and receive their change back, which is perfect for reducing contact. We have all seen self-service devices, they have proven to be popular and efficient across the retail sector and they are definitely a much quicker way of completing purchases and the best thing is they support a customers payment choice.

"Shining a light on the way business transact with their customers

Lincsafe have designed the Lincstation... A customer-facing pay station so sophisticated it transforms the way cash is handled."

"Please tell me more", I hear you say. The Lincstation is an automated intelligent and closed cash draw payment solution which also supports your customers' payment choice as it enables them to pay by Card, Cash or QR/2D (contactless payment method where payment is performed by scanning a QR code from a mobile app)

This can either be fitted to sit on top of the counter or be mounted into the counter at the point of sale and can be colour coded to match the counter. There is a display at the front and back of the device so your customer and member of staff both have visibility of the transaction in progress. The closed cash register leads to increased security as staff will not have access to open it and can be emptied by value conveyor, which reduces risk to your business. Its closed-loop intelligent cash recycler has a capacity of 1500 coins and 600 or 1200 notes, will help improve your businesses cash flow and reduce cash handling costs.

"But what is a Cash Recycler?", you ask! A cash recycler is a device that takes in cash as a deposit and stores the money in a built-in safe. It then reuses or recycles the same notes for later transactions where it would then be dispensed. The Lincstation improves customer service by enabling fast and automated cash payments, calculating and returning the change, so there's never a mistake with changing money. It also reduces cash handling and saves time for staff members counting the cash.

So, the next time you plan a new build or renovation, consider the LincStation. It's the perfect piece of equipment that would be used every day in any business to conveniently transact with cash.

Contact our team at CSGUK today to find out how the LincStation can be an integral part of your cash transacting business! Email us on sales@csguk.com or call us on +44 (0) 844 8000 448.

Keep them Safe!

With protection now more important than ever, CSGUK has solutions for your premises that give you complete control, whether letting visitors in or locking visitors out!

In these unprecedented times, there's a lot of talk about getting a grip on this pandemic, about getting it under control. Doing this successfully depends heavily on the system we have in place to address the safety of our staff, customers and premises.

What sort of measures are we talking about? It's certainly worth asking questions such as: "Where required, are my staff and customers wearing adequate personal protective equipment?"; "How do we know if someone has a high temperature, one of the symptoms of Covid-19, meaning a potential hazard for others in their vicinity"? and finally "How do I address the implementation of a system that addresses these issues?"

We're not suggesting deploying an army of individuals to do door checks to make sure they comply - that's just not practical on a number of levels, whether it be financial or efficient accessibility. Fortunately, technology and know-how are there to help out! Whether it's retail, commercial or industrial, our tailor-made access control and door entry solutions help increase security and make environments safer. How does it work, I hear you say?

Well before people move freely around the building, you can monitor and approve access, make sure they are wearing adequate personal protective equipment and even take a temperature check. And if you have bespoke requirements, CSGUK will provide the right access control solutions for your premises.

The benefits of Access Control Systems

• Access control systems give you ultimate control and monitoring

• Replacing locks and keys with electronic access control enables your staff and visitors to move around the premises without having to physically touch a door

• Contactless entry/exit systems reduce physical contact, are hygienic and help stop the spread of germs

• On arrival, visitors will receive a QR code instead of an access card

• Temperature checks monitor staff well-being

• Supports social distancing and comply's with capacity regulations

• Increase ease of access for staff and visitors

• Protect against unwanted visitors

Who you gonna call?

Many of us feel like we went to sleep in one world and woke up in another... A world with Covid-19 and IT's new rules! We've all had to learn how to socially distance ourselves in order to keep each other safe. We learnt that singing happy birthday whilst washing our hands would take 20 seconds and of course, the importance of NOT panic buying! And all whilst reducing contact with each other. But reduced contact doesn't have to mean isolation - At CSG UK we'll still be there for you when you need us...

Did you know that CSG UK

offers Remote Support?

CSG UK continues to support customers and clients in these unprecedented times by providing online technical assistance and remote telephone support.

"That's great, but how does that help me?", I hear you say. Well, let's say, for example, that you have one of our amazing smart safes installed. Our remote support includes checking for errors, fault diagnosis, software and hardware resets, interactive user training and even tutorials. Of course, we also provide remote support for CCTV systems which includes changing of passwords remotely, adjusting cameras and ensuring they stay online, keeping disk space up and junk files low.

What are the benefits of remote support?

Remote support solutions increase the performance of your devices and reduce machine downtime. By carrying out first-hand maintenance over the phone or by remote control, the requirement for an engineers attendance is reduced which saves money and keeps disturbance during working hours to a minimum. The use of remote control software assists with both further diagnostic maintenance as well as maintaining and respecting Covid-19 store regulations. Our friendly, experienced team are always more than happy to offer a helping hand either online or via telephone support to help resolve any technical problems you may face. And in the event that an engineer visit is required, you can be sure that all Covid-19 safety precautions are followed to ensure everyone's safety.

So who are you going to call? You can rely on CSG UK to answer your call and be your helping hand, even if it's socially distanced! Get in touch today to take advantage of our service and support team so lend your business our helping hands!
