can use to complete sales on your Genie Gateway. The three features
are:
- Virtual Point of Sale (VPOS).
- Genie Online Store and Shopping Cart.

Virtual
Point of Sale (VPOS)
The
Virtual Point of Sale is included in your Genie Gateway at NO
additional cost, and enables your customers to visit your Genie
Gateway online, or in your store, and send you a payment in
real-time. Your
Genie Gateway VPOS feature is already fully activated.
Your
customers simply click on the “$
Pay”
button. If they are a returning customer, all they need to do is
select “Existing
Account”
and enter either their Genie Number or cell phone number, their
passcode and approve the payment.
The
moment the payment is processed, you will get a text message to let
you know that your CashBox was credited with that payment. You will
also get an email describing what was purchased, including the
shipping address, in case the purchase was completed online.
Your
customer will get a text message to let them know that their payment
was sent to you, and an email describing what they purchased.
New

account FREE of charge. New customers will have to enter their name,

The
Genie API if you already have a shopping cart
The
Genie CashBox API was developed by AllCom, to provide those
merchants, who already have a website with an online store, the
ability to integrate their existing online store and shopping cart
with the Genie CashBox check out services.
Once
the API is integrated with a merchant’s shopping cart, their
customers can visit their website and encounter the same experience
as before the integration, but with the ability to check out using
Genie CashBox.
***
Returning customers will only need to enter their passcode and
approve the purchase.
The
Genie API provides the following features:
- Use with your own shopping cart.
- Provides amount and unique reference number.
- Return URL callback with results.
- May provide all customer information and auto fill signup forms.
- Returning customers can check out with only their pass code, if the cellphone or email was previously provided.
- Check status of orders using reference number.
***
Please note: To integrate an existing shopping cart
with the Genie API software routine, most Merchants will need
professional assistance from their Website developer or the
programmer managing their shopping cart.
Genie
API Integration Requirements:
- Administration access to server hosting shopping cart.
- Programming required for dynamic variables.
- The "Check Out" button of the shopping cart calls the API with the values of the check out.
- HTML editing required for static variables.
- A list of specific items can be created with static variables in HTML.
- This avoids programming, but does require the ability to create HTML pages.

signup fields will use the values provided. The only choices that
have to be made are Cellular Provider and Agree to Terms.
