Implement an Internet failover solution

Maintaining a stable and reliable Internet connection is a common challenge for stores. Without an active Internet connection, stores cannot process the most popular methods of payment - debit and credit cards - and losing valuable transactions.

For this reason, we recommend that all stores implement an Internet failover solution, such as 3G/4G cellular technology, that will allow them to continue processing debit and credit cards if their Internet connection is disrupted or fails. Meraki, a cloud networking solution from Cisco, is highly regarded in the industry. You can learn more about Meraki in this article.
