Apple Pay vs. J.P. Morgan Payments vs. Oracle Simphony POS Systems

If you accept payments while selling goods and services, Apple Pay can help you speed up the payment process while securely accepting payments. Since there is no need to stick a card into a machine, users won't have to fumble looking for a card when they can put their whole wallet on Apple Pay and check out easily.

It is good when you need a temporary (or permanent) solution to get funds to your bank account for something as small as a one time event, recurring or larger. It has reputable companies that use it and seems to integrate easily with most systems and accounts. You will have to go through a whole setup, with your bank accounts, etc.

In my experience, there has not been a resolution on outstanding tickets opened two years ago during the initial implementation. Simple things like time reporting, creating buttons, and marking items as "unavailable" have issues. The system has a lag when servers log out of checks that prevents them from opening the checks on another terminal without a wait that feels like an eternity in the restaurant industry and with direct impact to the guest. Good luck calling support. Most of my experience involves the person I spoke with having no idea how to fix my issue and having to "escalate the ticket." This escalation process will last weeks, months, and in our case, years with no resolution.

• The double click which launches it couldn't be easier; you don't even have to open your phone and find the app.
• It's pretty much fool proof from there, as just holding your phone near the reader is sufficient for success.
• Haptic feedback ensures that I know the payment registered.
• I have full faith and confidence that the transaction was executed securely.

• At times, my Apple Pay will pop up unintentionally. Perhaps there can be more safeguards around that.
• Apple Pay is not super great if I need to make a return. For any return, I've found that paper receipts are superior.
• Apple Pay sometimes requires very specific positioning when scanning the phone, which is frustrating.

• Admin reporting could be improved
• Fees are pulled out of each transaction instead of aggregated at the end of the month (this could be a pro for some users)
• Difficult to give switch the admin role after it has already been assigned
• No credit card swipers
• Only way to process a transaction is directly through the website

• Support is awful. Oracle does not directly support end-users and depends on resellers to offer support. So if there is a bug or breaking change, we have to jump through hoops to get something fixed.
• Does not play well with other software or interfaces. There are interfaces but they lack a serious amount of features that are crucial to our business.
• The guest facing hardware does not hold up to constant use very well.
• The backend hardware is lacking in PCI compliance and is not meant for enterprise use.
• The software itself looks as if it is stuck in the early 2000s and there has been no sign of an update in many years.
• Reporting is difficult to set up and use and you have to rely on third-party reporting to get decent usable reports.

When I had my Android/Samsung phone, I tried Samsung's version of Apple Pay and it was terrible. It was very glitchy, and sometimes I would get a notification that I paid for something when I wasn't even in a checkout screen, like I was just browsing the internet or something and I'd get a notification! It was alarming and I quickly uninstalled the app and never used it again.

PayPal has it's own niche, and have more stand alone options, but they are confusing to navigate unless you are in their system a lot. Integration can take a lot more time to do and test out. Plus WePay charges less than PayPal does which in this case is an advantage.

We've stayed with MICROS mainly due to that's how we've always operated and to switch operating POS systems would be a HUGE learning curve for everyone involved.

• Cuts down on sales time because Wepay does the approval instantly
• Less return on a per transaction basis because the Wepay fees are pretty high to start with so we can't mark them up too high

• Micros has allowed us to leverage our margin by using our own credit processor and loyalty program. We've seen success from both of these platforms (not Micros) and have been able to save money on the extra costs of using Micros.
