Shift4 partners with Squirrel System for POS integration

Shift4 announced a recent integration with POS innovator Squirrel Systems. This integration pairs Squirrel's state-of-the-art POS system with Shift4's SaaS-based enterprise payment solution.

"I'm excited by the potential this relationship holds for both organizations," said Bob Lowe, Shift4's director of strategic relationships. "It's nice to see Squirrel building their POS with truly modern Microsoft SQL technology. Now with a certification to Shift4's DOLLARS ON THE NET, their offering just got that much better."

Both companies are industry veterans, recognized as technological innovators in their respective spheres. Squirrel was the first vendor to introduce POS touch screen technology and continues to innovate today. Shift4 introduced tokenization to the credit card industry in 2005, and remains at the forefront of payment technology. Squirrel Systems integration of Shift4 payment solution is a next step in meeting the needs of their customers.

"With the integration of Shift4's solution to Squirrel, we are able to provide our customers with a very flexible, proven, and secure payment processing platform. Our customers are thrilled with the capabilities and cost-effectiveness of DOLLARS ON THE NET," said Joe Cortese, Squirrel's vice president of product development.

The integration premiered at the Fort Garry Hotel, Spa, and Conference Center in Winnipeg, Canada. Fort Garry also opted to install Shift4's IT'S YOUR CARD gift card solution, which enables gift card use across POS and PMS systems, and allows guests to use the same gift card throughout the property's various revenue centers.

"Thus far, the DOLLARS ON THE NET feature most impressive to me is the back-of-house reporting functionality," said Fort Garry Controller Mike Watson. "It's all online, accessible from anywhere, and the lookups are flexible - so when I go to search for info, it's right there at my fingertips."
