Lease Line Installation / De-Installation

Lease-Line Service for Credit Card Authorization

Background:

Among the bank card services available to WordStock customers through National Processing Company [NPC] is leased-line transaction authorization, which is much faster than standard dial-up authorization.

This page is a brief discussion of Asynchronous Lease-Line Service, as well as an overview of the steps involved with installing lease-line service; please contact WordStock Sales for more information.

Asynchronous Lease-Line Service

Description:
For high-volume merchants requiring especially fast service, asynchronous leased lines provide unlimited access for a fixed monthly rate. Call set-up is virutally eliminated. This service is available throughout the U.S.

Merchant Benefits:
- Transaction authorization response time is typically 2 to 5 seconds;
- Batch settlements can be processed up to 4 times as fast.

Target Merchants:
- Merchants who process 10,000 - 50,000 transactions per month;
- Merchants who want a high-speed processing connection but who do not have sufficient volume to justify a X.25 leased line

Features:
- Fast transaction response time;
- Low cost alternative to WATS dial.

Installation

A request for service letter, or form, is received from Vital, the network administrator for Visanet. Ordinarily you'll send this request to WordStock's 'NPC Relationship Manager.'

This letter must include the following information:

Name of the sponsoring member bank;
Bank contact person's name and phone number;
Your name, address, and your on-site contact person's name and phone number;
An alternate contact name and number (optional);
Whether or not you will need inside wiring installed;
Information about peak volume patterns (optional).

UNNET, the comany that will actually install the leased line, will contact you to verify the information. If you haven't already received information about the different telecommunications products that are available, UNNET will send it to you.

UNNET will work with your store's contact person to arrange for the UNNET circuit and other necessary hardware to be installed.

Note: Once UNNET has assigned dates for the circuit installation and hardware installationt, it is your responsibility to contact UNNET if you need to change the dates.

Async installations average 30 – 45 days.

De-Installation

A request for de-installation of service is received from Vital. This letter must include merchant name, site address, site telephone number, site contact and de-install date. UNNET calls the merchant to confirm this information -- if UNNET is unable to confirm the information, the de-installation is placed on hold. De-installations are usually completed within 30 – 60 days of the confirmation of merchant information.

The local telephone company turns off the CCA circuit service after the de-install date and then UNNET sends a Field Engineer to collect the modem from the merchant.

Information on this page is valid as of March 1, 2002, but please note that all specifications, including pricing, are subject to change without notice.
