You can now use the standard solution for POS terminal integration as a practical cloud service – for even less effort and even more control!

Pepper – now as a cloud service!

As a cloud solution, PepperQik not only makes it easy to integrate more than 100 different POS terminals into your cash register system: the universal interface no longer needs to be installed on your cash registers / servers, but now sits in the cloud.

PepperQik supports both cloud-based and non-cloud-based communication protocols (e.g. ZVT or OPI) – and works for all common terminal models throughout the entire DACH region.

With new, web-based cockpit

Only pay for what you actually use!

The new PepperQik cockpit is an intuitive web interface that makes administration and deployment even easier, while simultaneously giving users full control over communication between cash registers and terminals.

Here users can, for example, see all connected EFT terminals at a glance, manage users – and even view statistics for individual terminals or transaction types.

We’ve introduced a new billing model with PepperQik: billing is now per transaction. So if you have fewer transactions, you also pay less. Sounds fair, right?

The most important benefits of PepperQik

Less effort, more plug & play

With the new cloud architecture, integration is even easier and faster.

Flexible scalability

New branches or a greater number of transactions? No problem! You can always adapt PepperQik flexibly to your requirements.

Easy deployment

Thanks to the new PepperQik cockpit, it’s even easier to roll out and couple new terminals or entire terminal groups. Just click and you’re done!

Always full control

You benefit from intelligent transaction monitoring – which keeps downtime at the POS to a minimum.

Maintenance included!

We take care of all the software maintenance. Your IT team can put this time to good use elsewhere.

No internal hosting costs

Because the software is in the cloud, you no longer need your own servers. No hardware costs and no maintenance effort.

Fairer billing

Set everything up at your own pace before you even think about billing. With PepperQik you only pay if you have transactions – and thus generate revenue.

How does PepperQik work?

In terms of technology, PepperQik is based on new logic: all communication protocols for a variety of EFT peers (e.g. EFT/POS terminals) are now managed via a single REST API.

This means you can access the REST API via an interface (e.g. a cloud cash register) – and can control all the connected terminals from there. Particularly for software integrators (with a wealth of customers) or large companies (with a wealth of EFT peers), this new architecture makes both deployment and daily operation much easier.

How does the integration process work?

The new architecture of PepperQik has also simplified the integration process:

first we work together to identify your specific setup, terminal landscape and corresponding communication protocols.

Now you just need to integrate the REST API as outlined in the PepperQik documentation.

Once you’ve received your registration code from us, you’re ready for testing and rollout.

treibauf is happy to guide you through this integration process on request.

pepper qik

Can terminals without a cloud interface be connected to PepperQik too?

Yes, they can. That’s because we’ve developed our own software component for that purpose – PepperQik Satellite. Satellite is simply installed on the local network and handles communication instead of the cloud interface.

Does PepperQik also work with cloud-based cash register systems?

Yes, our PepperQik solution has been specifically developed for cloud-based cash register systems.

How do I get a test licence for PepperQik?

To test PepperQik for free, you just need to register on our test system – and then we’ll send you a test registration code. Please feel free to contact us at any time if you have questions.

How long does PepperQik integration take?

You should allow around a day’s work for initial integration of the PepperQik REST API. It then takes about five minutes to connect new terminals.

What are the integration options for PepperQik?

PepperQik works no matter the operating system because it uses a REST API: the cloud service can be controlled by all modern cash register systems. For connection to specific end points, the integrator receives a standard REST API, incl. corresponding documentation with sample http requests and responses.

What are the system requirements for PepperQik?

To use PepperQik you need to have a data line connected to the internet. The cloud service requires at least 100 KB/s for both download and upload.

What IT environment does PepperQik require?

PepperQik is our cloud solution, which is controlled using REST API. This means PepperQik works with cloud-based cash register systems and terminals just as well as it does with cash registers and terminals run locally by the retailer.

What licensing models are available for PepperQik?

PepperQik is a cloud software service that is billed monthly or annually (with a discount). You can choose between different models depending on the number of transactions or operations you have per month. This means PepperQik can grow flexibly with your company.

Who hosts PepperQik?

treibauf takes care of the hosting, operation and maintenance for PepperQik.
