FrontStream Payments Launches Integrated Solution With Equipment Dealership Software Provider, Dealer Information Systems Corporation

FrontStream Payments Launches Integrated Solution With Equipment Dealership Software Provider, Dealer Information Systems Corporation










Brentwood,TN (PRWEB) August 10, 2011

FrontStream Payments has launched its newest integrated solution with Dealer Information Systems Corporation (DIS Corporation), a specialty provider of enterprise management software for dealers and distributors of agricultural equipment, construction equipment, and lift trucks.

"We continue to pursue our strategy to foster strong and mutually beneficial partnerships with specialized business software companies, such as DIS Corporation," stated Nina Velleyan, Chief Executive Officer and President of FrontStream Payments, "This is another great example of a successful technology integration that merges FrontStream's robust gateway platform and payment products together with a recognized dealer management software application, to offer a built-in, totally compliant and efficient business processing solution."

DIS Corporation, a 30 year service provider of business management software, offers an equipment dealer business solution called QuipWare. The configurable, flexible nature of QuipWare makes it a favorite for dealers and distributors with multiple locations and provides comprehensive and powerful features designed for the specialized business needs of the equipment industry. The package addresses business functions, such as parts and fleet inventory, service management, leases, reservations, account and financial management, and robust reporting tools.

Now, in addition to the business management benefits of QuipWare, DIS Corporation clients will have the advantage of implementing a secure and fully compliant payment acceptance platform that utilizes FrontStream Payments' proprietary gateway technology to process electronic payments. Through this integration, DIS is offering their dealer and distributor clients a 100% secure payment and reporting platform, along with the products needed to seamlessly and compliantly accept and manage electronic payments of all types.

"Our parts and service departments are more productive, because they are able to process the credit cards from within QuipWare at the point of sale, eliminating double entry, and we have eliminated hours each week of downtime and reconfiguration of our previous process, allowing our IT staff to concentrate on company issues," said Fred Infurchia, Director of Information Technology at Flagler CE Holdings, LLC, and user of the new DIS Corporation/FrontStream Payments integrated software solution, " This is proof and recognition of the soft savings, which in my view, are usually difficult to measure."

In addition, the integration of FrontStream's gateway platform will offer DIS dealerships automated batch reporting and an integrated financial tracking interface for one-stop accounting views. Running transactions through the new solution also ensures cardholder data transferred between QuipWare and the consumer is completely secure and PCI compliant due to state-of-the-art encryption and tokenization code built into FrontStream's integration model. This feature greatly lowers security risks and minimizes the compliance vulnerabilities associated with accepting cardholder payments.

"PCI compliance is a very real issue in today's software world, and partnering with FrontStream Payments gives us and our clients both an assurance of greater compliance, as well as the benefits of security, price and a partner company who is known to be progressive when it comes to technology, products and services," stated Phil Conophy, Dealer Information Systems' Vice President of Development
