MEGATHREAD New POS (post-cutover)

To my understanding, it will verify the item the guest wants to exchange it with is the same item but in a different variant.

Guests will try to abuse it. Example more storage on an iPad

I’m sure it will verify the MSRP price, and if it’s the same it will honor it, otherwise it will be the same.

I assume it will do that but some guests reading it will read it as “more storage on iPad for free”

to be fair an exchange has NEVER worked like that haha.

They are getting mad at us for low new circle sign ups, but why do they make it the most unintuitive way possible? Why does the pin pad only give you an option for phone number? And if you are not signed up why doesn't it ask for you to sign up there instead of suspending and going to an entirely new application? And why does two of the three buttons on the sign up application do absolutely nothing but tell them that they have an account already? Let me print out the temporary barcode again if they are signed up.

They make it absolutely as hard as possible to use the loyalty and get mad when people don't use it? Not to mention expecting infinite growth in an finite system.

Could the POS team make sure the cash back screen does not prompt when the drawer is open? We leave the drawers open without cash at night but people can still select cash back when we don't have any.

Is it standard practice across the chain to do this?
We've never done that. We bank the register and then stop using it completely.

Sounds like a feature request would be to put manned registers into a no-cash mode so that you can only take credit/debit, GiftCard, and Wallet payments.

We do it cause our ghetto neighbor store gets broken into every other day. 😭

So now if you have a transaction over $500 in cash a lead must physically sign into the register and count it themselves

That is no longer best practice. New POS doesn't "close," and New POS registers are designed to continue to be used even after start funds are done at night.

I have mixed feelings about this. I like it but I don't like it at the same time
