Manual Doesn’t Have to Mean Dinosaur
A dinosaur to the credit card industry, manual credit card imprinters are still useful to some merchants.
Networks are not infallible. How many times are you sitting in an office and the network goes down? What about the number of times you have tried to go online and your internet connection isn’t working?
A manual credit card machine would be perfect for just such problems. While the rest of the world is “down”, you can still be “up” and running! Having a manual machine and slips handy is never a bad thing.
Manual card machines also come in handy if you do traveling to things like trade shows. It’s a way of continuing business even when you’re out of the office so to speak.
