FAQ for retailers

Overview

 

 

  • What does POSA mean?

POSA is an acronym for Point Of Sale Activated. This means that digital products of this nature always only receive their value once they have been activated by the retailer. Until activated, the products - whether on a card or as a print-out - have no value.

  • What is the ContentKiosk™?

Our ContentKiosk™ is the perfect sales format to show your end customers your portfolio of thousands of digital products.
The tablet integrated together with a receipt printer in a metal casing allows your end customers to browse through this wide range of products and helps them decide which product to buy with numerous pictures, descriptions and videos on the individual products.
The end customer has fun finding their product, whilst gathering information at the same time. Coupled with the advice available in store, this creates the ideal shopping experience. The customer then takes the print-out to the checkout, where you then print out the required active PIN  once it has been paid for .

  • What is the MiniKiosk™?

The MiniKiosk™ from ContentCard© is the ideal alternative to the technical connection of your POS system. This small touch terminal is placed at the checkout and allows you to select products quickly via the graphical user interface or a barcode reader and to print off a usable code directly for your end customers.

  • What benefits do I get from distributing digital products from ContentCard®?

  • What different methods are there for selling digital products?

Basically, there are three ways in which digital products can be distributed:

  • ContentCards, which are POSA (point of sale activated) cards
  • Direct top-up
  • POR (pin on receipt) or pinprint
  • How can I as a retailer activate ContentCards?

This can be done via technical connection of your POS system or payment terminal. Alternatively, our professional online cash register solution including product catalogue brodos.net or the completely self-contained MiniKiosk™ are available straightaway, without any need for integration.

  • How can I as a retailer carry out top-ups?

This can be done via technical connection of your POS system or payment terminal. Alternatively, our professional online cash register solution including product catalogue brodos.net or the completely self-contained MiniKiosk are available straightaway, without any need for integration.

  • How can I as a retailer print off PIN codes?

This can be done via technical connection of your POS system or payment terminal. Alternatively, our professional online cash register solution including product catalogue brodos.net or the completely self-contained MiniKiosk are available straightaway, without any need for integration.

  • Which possibilities does ContentCard AG offer for technical connection?

ContentCard© has various interfaces which can be contacted by all kinds of systems: ranging from online portals and POS systems to payment terminals and backend servers.

  • Can I also sell digital products from ContentCard© without an online cash register system or technical connection?

Yes, that is possible. For this instance, ContentCard© offers a professional and secure online cash register solution, brodos.net, and the fully self-contained MiniKiosk™.

  • Why is ContentCard® the right partner?

We at ContentCard© have one major concern: offering retail simple and wide-ranging access to the ever more important digital products, thereby giving retail the competitive edge needed to exist alongside the internet.On account of having been created from the Brodos AG, ContentCard© can look back on roughly 20 years experience in the distribution business and is well aware of the requirements of the retail sector.The consistent decision not to provide payment services means that you as a retailer are not bound to any one payment provider and can choose whichever service you prefer.

  • Which advantages does the ContentKiosk™ have for my business?

You can offer your end customers the huge and constantly changing world of digital products in a very small space. These products are added to and brought up to date automatically all the time. This variety coupled with the possibility of approaching customers via multimedia allows you to win completely new groups of customers for your store, whilst boosting customer traffic at the same time. In addition to the revenue from product sales, the ContentKiosk™ allows you to tap in to the full potential offered by cross-selling and the acquisition of new customers. All the other advantages offered by digital products (no need to invest up-front in products, no risk of theft, never “out of stock” again) naturally also apply.

  • Which technical requirements are needed for operating the ContentKiosk™/MiniKiosk™ ?

All you need to operate both devices is simply an electrical connection and WLAN access.
