Epos Now Gift Card Integration | Factor4

How the Epos Now connection works

Factor4 connects directly to Epos Now. Gift card activation, redemption and balance lookups run through the platform your staff already use, against one real-time balance ledger — no second device and no nightly batch.

Setup steps

Onboarding follows the same sequence on every platform: confirm the configuration, connect the program, load card stock, test at the register, then go live. Timelines depend on how many locations and devices are in scope.

  1. 1Confirm your Epos Now account and locations with a Factor4 specialist.
  2. 2Install the Factor4 app from the Epos Now AppStore.
  3. 3Sign in with your Factor4 program credentials to bind the till to your account.
  4. 4Confirm card stock or the card range being migrated.
  5. 5Test activation, redemption, partial redemption and balance inquiry at the till.
  6. 6Go live. Typical elapsed time from kickoff to first live card: [TODO: verify].

What the workflow looks like at the terminal

Four actions cover almost everything a clerk does with a gift card: activate, redeem, redeem part of a balance, and check a balance. Each one runs against the same real-time ledger, so a card sold at one location works instantly at another.

  • Activate: ring the gift card as an item, swipe or scan the card, enter the load amount, and the card is live on the shared balance ledger before the receipt prints.
  • Redeem: tender the check to gift card, swipe or key the card number, and the balance is drawn down in real time.
  • Partial redemption: when the balance is less than the check, the POS applies the full remaining balance and leaves the difference on the check for a second tender.
  • Balance check: run a balance inquiry from the same menu; the terminal prints or displays the current balance without moving funds.
