Viva wallet integration in Cegid Retail Y2

Good News

We have good news from our development department and have taken an important step towards integrating Viva Wallet into our Cegid Retail Y2 POS system: In the last few weeks our developers were able to develop a Cegid Y2 CPOS driver to work with electronic payments from Viva Wallet . Since Cegid offers its solution in over 69 country versions and currently in 22 languages, a provider that is similarly positioned (in Europe) is an ideal fit.

This driver enables merchants to integrate Cegid Y2 with Viva Wallet and the entire family of its terminals to take and manage in-store and card-present payments .

The terminal models supported include Q30 or IM30 Prolin terminal with a software version 4.13 or later. Any Axxx (e.g. A80, A920/A920 Pro) or IMxx series (e.g. IM30) Android card terminal with a software version 1.6.0 or later.

Viva Wallet POS terminals can receive requests for initiating transactions from a Cegid Y2 client connected to the same local wired or wireless IP network. Communication with the terminal is done through a TCP/IP connection.

The following transactions are supported
  • Electronic payment
  • Cancelation of payment
  • Refund
  • Settlement (print list of transactions per terminal) at the end of the day

Outlook

In the future an implementation of the driver to be able and communicate with the terminals using Viva Wallet`s dedicated REST API (secure HTTP connection) is also considered. This will result into a more flexible and easier configuration. As soon as it is released we will implement and update the driver.

Good to know

Additional focus is of course the Viva Wallet POS app payment solution which will be supported also by the REST API. Using one device, especially a non-dedicated, is in our opinion the future in payment handling in the stores.

In addition to the innovative technology Viva Wallet is offering very attractive pricing. Just a flatrate with no hidden cost. As there is also no long-lasting contract to be signed it is easy to try it out for a month without any obligation. Just Contact us and we will provide you a competitive offer.

„Digital Jetzt“ - Investment support for small and medium-sized enterprises

In the current situation, everything is a bit difficult and complicated. Nevertheless, you would like to invest in a new project, but are wondering how the financing is to be managed? We have the answer: With the new funding program "Digital Now" you get up to 50% funding rate!

Digitisation is the key point to make your own company even more successful. Simplification of communication, improvement of customer service or cost savings can be of considerable benefit. Some companies are ahead of the game and are already investing in digitisation departments that focus exclusively on introducing or optimizing digital structures at their own sites. Since 2020, the profession of "digitalisation management clerk" has even been a separate training program.

In the German sector, however, there is still talk of a digitisation gap that needs to be closed. The federal government therefore wants to actively provide support for digitisation. The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) has therefore launched the new program „Digital Jetzt“ for all small and medium-sized enterprises. The program supports companies in their investments in digital technologies and the qualification of employees. Business processes are to be improved, as are competitive and innovative capabilities or IT security in the companies themselves - also and especially in economically structurally weak regions.
